A four-year old boy from Haina, Kelyn Flores, has died of rabies at the Robert Reid Cabral Children's Hospital. A second rabies victim, Martha Laura de Jesus, is now out of critical condition. Flores died in the early hours of Thursday, and his death is being blamed on the fact that he was not given a rabies vaccination after being bitten. According to reports, the child was not responding to any types of medication and fell into a deep coma before dying. Listin Diario reports that the child was bitten by a dog on 27 February 2009, but was not inoculated. His mother Marlene Flores says she was never told she had to get her son vaccinated.
