There have been no cases of rabies in Taiwan in 30 years. Yet in all the world only a few countries have completely wiped out this disease. Outside of Australia, Antarctica, Taiwan and Japan, dogs still infect 20,000 people with rabies every year.
台灣雖然三十年未曾發生狂犬病例，但狂犬病其實只在世界上少數幾個國家絕跡，除澳洲、南極洲和台灣、日本外，至今全世界每年平均仍有兩萬人感染狂犬病。
