Mass vaccination call to 'make rabies history'

Greater effort needs to be put into vaccinating dogs against rabies in order to save lives, health experts say.

Up to 60,000 people die from the viral infection each year and it is almost always caught from dog bites.
The Global Alliance for Rabies Control said mass vaccination could "make rabies history".
The organisation HealthforAnimals argued protecting dogs was the most cost-effective way to protect people.
Rabies is present on every continent except Antarctica, but the overwhelming majority of deaths are in Asia and Africa.

Gene therapy stabilises lungs of cystic fibrosis patients

CF patients have to take a battery of treatments to keep the symptoms at bay. Gene therapy could be a simpler and more effective treatment

A gene therapy has stabilised and slightly improved cystic fibrosis in some of 136 patients in a trial.

Their lungs showed no decline, on average, after they inhaled healthy copies of the gene that causes CF once a month for a year, results published in Lancet Respiratory Medicine show.
And the lungs most clogged before the trial showed a 3% improvement.
The lungs of patients that did not take the gene therapy showed a decline of 3-4% on average over the same period.

This is the first reported case of Ebola in Liberia since it was declared free of the disease seven weeks ago.
Deputy health minister Tolbert Nyenswah said tests confirmed that the teenager from Nedowein village, near the international airport, had died of the disease on 28 June.
