During this period, the entire Do Luong district will organize rabies vaccination for over 30,000 dogs. Prior to this, to ensure the vaccination campaign is successful, the district notified the communes of the vaccination plan and organized awareness campaigns to encourage people to improve their understanding of rabies vaccination for dogs, contributing to protecting the health of pets and limiting the spread of the disease to the community.

In addition, the district's steering committee requested the decisive involvement of local authorities, with each official and Party member setting a good example in properly vaccinating their family's livestock against rabies.

Currently, the district's veterinary station has received 16,000 doses of rabies vaccine for dogs from the provincial veterinary sub-department, and 33 communes and towns have received the vaccine to implement vaccination programs.

Do Luong district is striving to complete the 2017 rabies vaccination program for dogs before April 20th.
