“While the pandemic made it difficult to conduct our rabies vaccination clinics last year, we were still able to offer this much-requested service to our residents,” said Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente. “Vaccinating your pets against rabies is very important to the safety of our community and we will continue to schedule even more clinics throughout 2021.”
Last year, the county Health Department investigated 551 cases of human or pet contact with a variety of potentially rabid animals including bats, foxes, skunks, cats, raccoons and even a cow.. 16 animals were lab confirmed positive for rabies
The Health Department vaccinated 249 pets in 2020.
