Minister of Public Health Bautista Rojas Gomez has said that increased measures to fight the spread of rabies in animals will be taken and that vaccinations of street dogs and cats will be stepped up over the next few weeks. He added that Ministry of Public Health vets vaccinated 10,000 dogs and cats during the weekend and that the project will be extended nationwide.

Kerlin David Flores and Martha Laura de Jesus remain in critical condition after being bitten by a dog and a cat.
