two veterinary medicine students conducting their thesis work, further investigated the territory through an extensive knowledge survey using questionnaires administered in six regions (Bissau, Cacheu, Bafat\u00e1, Gab\u00fa, Quinara and Biombo).<\/p><p>The survey involved health workers, veterinary technicians, and citizens, both adults and children, to understand perceptions of rabies, post-bite behaviour, and access to vaccines.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The questionnaires highlighted:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">a fair knowledge of the disease in urban areas (especially Bissau), but persistent traditional beliefs and risky practices in rural areas and tabankas;<\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">the lack of clear protocols in health centres for managing bite cases and the frequent confusion between tetanus and rabies vaccines;<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">a perceived prohibitive cost of vaccines, the main obstacle to access for both people and animals;<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">a strong willingness among the population to vaccinate dogs if prices were more affordable;<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">the almost total absence of digital registers for reporting cases, with the exception of the Gab\u00fa region, which represents a positive model for data collection and management.<\/li><\/ul><p> <\/p><p>During the mission, information was also collected on vaccine supply sources, flows between health centres and the General Directorate of Livestock, and post-bite pathways followed by patients, contributing to an updated mapping of the health and veterinary response system in the country.<\/p><p>The students\u2019 work was later presented during an awareness event organised in Padua, at the CUAMM headquarters, where they shared their field experience with students, professionals, and interested citizens, illustrating the challenges of rabies management in Guinea-Bissau, a veterinary-relevant but neglected disease in Italy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a83037d elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"a83037d\"
