The probability of victims of bites by suspect rabid animals receiving and completing PEP vaccine doses.
<p>The situation for bite victims in Kilombero and Ulanga may not be representative as St Francis Mission Hospital in Kilombero received donated vaccine through Ifakara Health Institute as a result of the outbreak, therefore the population in the Kilombero valley is likely better served than in some other rural parts of Tanzania.</p

Average costs of PEP according to different schedules and methods of subsidization in relation to income.
<p>The projected average per capita daily income for 2010 was USD 0.68 in rural areas and USD 1.55 in urban areas. PEP costs were calculated as: ((Cost per dose+(days lost per dose * daily income))*clinic visits;</p><p>§: Scenario with government providing PEP to bite patient free-of-charge;</p><p>‡<i>:</i> Scenario with government providing PEP to bite patient free-of-charge from local health facilities (i.e. not only at district hospitals).</p><p>ςThis regimen requires 4 hospital visits and therefore is equivalent in travel costs to the reduced Thai Red Cross ID regimen that uses less vaccine (0.1 ml/injection).</p
