Tragic vacation: British dies of rabies after dog scratches in Morocco!

Marokko - Yvonne Ford from Barnsley, England, succumbed to tragic fate during her vacation in Morocco. It was scratched by a dog, which led to the transfer of the rabies virus. About two weeks after the incident, there were symptoms that started with headaches and quickly deteriorated. After all, Ford could no longer go, speak or sleep and died of the consequences of rabies.

Your daughter has now warned other vacationers and pointed out that rabies always goes fatal as soon as symptoms occur. Fortunately, the disease can be prevented by immediate medical care after first contact with an infected animal. Even small scratches or bites can transmit the virus, which is why the British Health Authority (UKHSA) asks travelers to be particularly careful when dealing with animals in rabies affected by rabies. Dr. Katherine Russell from the UKHSA expressed their condolences to the family and confirmed the tragic incident.
