abstract="From 2001 to 2010, there were 20,522 diagnoses of animal bites among U.S. military members. Of these, 643 (3.1%) were documented during medical encounters in combat theater. The majority of bites were &quot;dog bites&quot; and occurred more in males, soldiers, and those in infantry and law enforcement occupations. A small proportion of animal bites received documentation of exposure to or post-exposure prophylaxis for rabies virus. Animal bite avoidance and rabies education should be reinforced before members travel or deploy to areas highly endemic for rabies.  Keywords: Animal Bites; Dog Bites<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
