The Foreign Office-supported Travel Health Pro website recently highlighted that rabies remains ‘nearly always fatal’ in humans once symptoms begin, underscoring the urgent need for vaccination ahead of travel to high-risk areas. Currently, two primary rabies vaccines—Bavarian Nordic’s Rabipur and Sanofi’s Verorab—are in limited supply, raising concerns for those planning trips abroad.
