Ninety-five percent confidence intervals of pre-survey probability of infection freedom and hence resulting sample sizes, were obtained by exact binomial confidence intervals based on the proportion of iterations with values < 0.2 and < 0.1%, respectively, to the total number of iterations performed. Sample sizes were calculated with Survey Toolboxassuming a population of 50,000 herds, 99% herd sensitivity for diagnostic testing and a threshold of 0.2% and 0.1%, respectively

Functional relationships estimated between A) rabies incidence in domestic dogs and average biannual dog vaccination coverage and B) probability of receiving post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and the Human Development Index.
<p>Upper inset in A shows the relationship on a log scale and the lower inset shows the relationship between rabies incidence in livestock and vaccination coverage in domestic dogs. Grey shading shows the 95% confidence intervals of the fitted relationships.</p

Model framework used in this study for estimating the global burden of canine rabies.
<p>Probability steps correspond to the probability that a bite is by a rabid animal (<i>RP);</i> that the victim received post-exposure prophylaxis, PEP, (<i>PP)</i>; and, in the absence of PEP, that the bite victim developed rabies (<i>DP)</i>.
