Rabies Surveillance
Introduction | >Next
The Rabies Surveillance program works closely with the Epidemiology Department and the Orange County Animal Services (OCAS) office to prevent the spread of rabies in the domestic pet population and in humans. Pet owners are required to have their pets vaccinated against rabies.
Our office investigates all reported suspect animal bites and scratches and the animal is placed under quarantine for observation for 10 days following the exposure. The animal is observed at the end of the quarantine period to be sure that it is healthy.
If you have a pet that has been attacked by a wild animal, you should immediately report it to the local health department and have the animal examined by a veterinarian.
Anyone who has been bitten by an animal should immediately seek medical attention. Physicians are required to report all animal bite cases to the local health department.
If you have any questions, please call our office at 407-521-2630.
