Three Rabies Cases Reported in Cape May County; Clinics Scheduled 

 Cape May County has confirmed three rabies cases in 2023, prompting officials to remind residents to vaccinate pets and avoid contact with wild animals. “Keeping pets current on their rabies vaccine is a crucial step in protecting both animals and humans from rabies,” says Kevin Thomas, the county's health officer, “It creates a vital barrier between wildlife rabies and potential human exposure.” For additional information on the clinics and rabies prevention, contact the Cape May County Department of Health. Free rabies vaccination clinics will be offered throughout early 2025. Rabies, a fatal disease, can be prevented with timely medical intervention and responsible pet care.
