A related publication (Agung Gde Putra et al 2013) indicated that there has now been two mass vaccination programs that have achieved ~70% coverage rates of dogs but that rabies continues to be present and dog bites of people (exposures) continue to be high (more than 4,000 per month). Townsend et al (2013) suggested that although the overall coverage in the first mass vaccination program was as high as 70% the long time taken to complete the program meant that the average island wide coverage was probably closer to 40% due to ongoing animal turnover and waning immunity.
