RABIES IN KENYA.
Alarm was being, felt throughout Kenya in October owing to the rapid spread of rabies. It was officially announced that 12 Europeans in the Kericho district alone were under treatment after having been bitten by mad dogs. Numerous natives were also under treatment, ten of whom were bitten by one dog. The destruction of all stray dogs was being undertaken, but much danger arose from wild animals (for example, jackals), many of which were known to be infected. Several districts were placed under quarantine.
