explanation for removal
I removed this section:
<blockquote>
===Steps===
*To prevent human rabies deaths through preventative and reactive
measures:
Focusing on mass vaccination of domestic dogs
Prompt and appropriate administration of human post-exposure prophylaxis – PEP
*To alleviate the burden of rabies in animal species, primarily through
mass dog vaccination:
Preventing rabies outbreaks in wild animal populations, particularly endangered species
Preventing animal suffering and improving community attitudes towards animals
Reducing livestock losses
*To promote education of major target groups, focusing on:
The general public in rabies endemic areas, principally children between 5-15 years of age
Human and animal health workers and field personnel
Wildlife agencies and wildlife management personnel
*To undertake and promote surveillance of rabies in human and
animal populations:
To provide more accurate estimates of rabies disease burden and raise awareness
To optimize the use of post-exposure vaccines and immunoglobulin in people
To evaluate the impact of disease control measures
</blockquote>
Not only is it a direct copy/paste from here[http://www.rabiescontrol.org/aboutus_objectives_en.php], but it is describing an organization's goals, not the rabies disease. It also has <i>horrible</i> problems with grammar.
