The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (Mapa) has launched the new page of the National Herbivorous Rabies Control Program (NHRCP) to show the importance and need for disease control. The new page also marks World Rabies Day, celebrated on September 28th. The date was set in 2007 in honor of Louis Pasteur, who developed the first effective vaccine against the disease. The page became more visually attractive with the insertion of images and explanatory texts.
