Merck Animal Health remains committed to helping eliminate the deadly threat of rabies through its global non-profit initiative, the Afya Program, by donating NOBIVAC® rabies vaccines to support canine vaccination efforts in areas where rabies is endemic. More than seven million NOBIVAC® rabies vaccines have been donated.
Combating rabies and improving the health of dogs is a shared responsibility of individuals and communities in eliminating rabies and was reflected in the World Rabies Day theme, “Act Now: You, Me, Community.”
