Abstract：Objective To explore the epidemic regularity of rabies in Baise City, to study the causes and influencing factors of its incidence, and to provide evidence for formulating its prevention and control measures. Methods We collected and statistically analyzed the data regarding the incidence of human rabies in Baise City from 2009 to 2020 and the data about population with rabies prevention after injuring by animals from 2019 to 2020. Results One hundred and five cases of human rabies were reported in Baise City from 2009 to 2020, and all of them were injured by animals and not treated in time. Among them, 79.05% were farmers, 87.62% were caused by dog injury, and 78.10% were induced by untreated wound after exposure, with the self-disposal rate, the vaccine injection rate, the rate of injection with a full course of vaccine, and the injection rate of rabies passive immune preparation being 19.05%, 1.90%, 0.00%, and 1.69%, respectively. There were 30,320 visits due to rabies exposure in disposal outpatient clinics of county-level (city-level and district-level) centers for disease control and prevention in Baise City from 2019 to 2020, and the immunization vaccination rate was 97.36%. The injection rate of rabies passive immune preparation in cases with grade III rabies exposure was 29.22%. Canine-induced injuries accounted for 51.35% of the rabies exposure cases, cat-induced injuries for 33.95%, and all injuries were mainly caused by suspected healthy animals with no abnormal appearance. No rabies case was found in the rabies-exposed cases with normal handling within the two years. Conclusion Baise City is still an area with high incidence of rabies. The effective measures for rabies prevention include reinforcing the multi-department joint prevention and control, devoting greater effort to disseminating knowledge of rabies prevention to high risk group, treating exposed wounds timely, standardly and thoroughly, and receiving a full course of rabies vaccine and rabies immunoglobulin.
