Morris County Rabies Clinics In November And December

From the Morris County Government:

Clinics Set for 23 Towns from Oct. 26 Through Dec. 14

There will be plenty of opportunities across Morris County over the next seven weeks to get your pets vaccinated for rabies in 2019, with many towns in Morris County set to host rabies clinics.

Rabies is an infectious disease caused by the rabies virus. Animals infected with rabies display strange behavior such as aggression, and signs of neurologic impairment including vocalization, circling, and paralysis.

People who are bitten by, or have had contact with saliva from an animal should notify the local health department having jurisdiction where the animal is located and seek medical care.
