A domestic case of rabies has not been reported in Japan since 1957. The last case of rabies reported in Japan was an imported case from Nepal in 1970. We recently experienced a new case imported from the Philippines, the first case in Japan in 36 years. Although Japanese people are about to forget the dangers of rabies, this case should serve as a warning to those Japanese who are planning a trip abroad.
自1957年以来,日本未曾报告过国内狂犬病病例。日本报告的最后一例狂犬病病例是1970年从尼泊尔输入的病例。我们最近遇到了一例从菲律宾输入的新病例,这是日本36年来的首例。尽管日本人即将忘记狂犬病的危险,但这一病例应给那些计划出国旅行的日本人敲响警钟。
