Two-year-old south Durban boy becomes first rabies fatality in 2021

Durban - A PRE-SCHOOLER, who died from human rabies last month, was the first report of human rabies in 2021.
The two-year-old boy from eNgonyameni, near uMlazi, sustained a head injury while playing with a dog during the last week of January 2021.
He was taken to hospital but he was reportedly not given rabies post exposure prophylaxis (PEP), said the National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD) in their February Communiqué.
“Purportedly, the dog died. The boy was admitted to a hospital on February 10 with fever, nausea, vomiting, tiredness, muscle spasms, hypersalivation, hydrophobia, confusion, agitation, hyperactivity and aggressive behaviour, and died the following day. A single saliva sample, collected before the patient died, tested positive on rabies RT–PCR,” the NICD said.
