Abstrakt		This article deals with post-exposure treatment of contacts of human cases of rabies. Experience suggests that rabies is hardly ever transmitted from person to person if at all. With the modern generation of vaccines against rabies, the use of post-exposure treatment is more widespread. A lot of contacts of patients with rabies in developed countries are treated, most of them being health care workers. This treatment is however not practised so often in developing countries where the supply of highly protective vaccines with a few side effects is low. According to reports good hygienic practice in nursing these patients is well established.
