The District of Columbia Department of Health (DC Health) has a robust animal bite and rabies surveillance system which is crucial to facilitate prevention and control of human and animal rabies. Using a One Health approach which recognizes that the health of animals, humans, and the environment are interconnected, strong collaboration exists among DC’s animal shelter, animal control, veterinary and human healthcare workers, lab personnel and the health department.
