Rabies TodayUkraine, Tanzania and new tools and resourcesIn Ukraine, rabies is rising among abandoned pets, and could spread to surrounding countries in Europe. We hear an urgent call for mass vaccination and sterilisation of dogs to avert catastrophe. In Tanzania, international endorsement of the national rabies control plan is helping to secure more funding. And we are reminded of the critical importance of immediate and thorough wound-washing in any suspected rabies case. Unicef is keen to increase rabies awareness among children, families and health workers at community level and we introduce some practical new tools and resources from WHO to assist countries in their roll out o...2025-06-2419 min
Science In ActionVaccinating rabies’ reservoir dogsIn 2015, the World Health Organisation set the goal of eradicating rabies deaths from dog-bites to “Zero by 2030”. A team at the University of Glasgow and colleagues in Tanzania have been assessing the efficacy of dog vaccination schemes for reducing the numbers of human infections over the last 20 years. As Prof Katie Hampson tells Science in Action, in rural areas especially, vaccinating dog populations does work, but you need to keep at it, and not leave patches untouched. It should be funded as a public health measure, rather than a veterinary issue. Last weekend, the remains of a fail...2025-05-1538 min

Rabies TodayRabies in Conflict ZonesThe battle against rabies is complex and difficult. But imagine having to fight rabies in a country at war. In this episode, we meet three people working in enormously challenging circumstances in Afghanistan, South Sudan and Ukraine. From Ukraine we learn that soldiers on the front line are being put at risk of rabies as abandoned animals reproduce and are running wild. In Afghanistan, international isolation makes vaccine procurement extremely difficult. And in South Sudan internal conflict further complicates rabies control efforts hindered by under-development.Join Professor Katie Hampson and her guests:Olh...2024-12-1016 min
Rabies TodayRabies Control: Don't Wait, Do SomethingSouth African rabies expert Kevin Le Roux told colleages at the United Against Rabies Forum in Cape Town that rabies data will never be perfect, so what is vital is to act to control the disease and save lives. Meanwhile Dr Joseph Nkhoma of Malawi points out that lack of data is a huge impediment to getting political and financial support for rabies control. Another hot topic at the UAR forum was the economic costs of rabies to lives and livelihoods - and who should pay for dog vaccination: ministries of health, or ministries of agriculture?2024-10-2319 min

It also kills huge numbers of livestock animals at great cost to farming and pastoral communities.In this episode, Katie Hampson reports from northern Tanzania where there has been some progress in bringing rabies under control, but also meets a family whose son has recently been infected.Across Africa, the people most vulnerable to rabies usually live in remote and rural areas, where dog vaccination rates are low, awareness of t...2024-08-0122 min
Rabies TodayGavi's Vaccine RolloutHuman rabies vaccines for PEP save lives by stopping the deadly virus reaching the central nervous system. But these lifesaving vaccines are often unavailable or unaffordable, especially in marginalized communities in Asia and Africa where rabies is still a significant public health problem.On 12 June 2024, Gavi begins the rollout of a new program to help over 50 countries to access human rabies vaccines, potentially saving hundreds of thousands of lives and catalyzing more sustainable approaches to rabies elimination. This episode explains Gavi’s offer, what it aims to achieve and what countries need to do to qualify for su...2024-06-1122 min

The ITCs4All PodcastCreative Educator, Creative StudentsThe goal of every lesson is a transfer of knowledge from the lesson to application. The method we select for assessment defaults to the method of our content delivery. If we instruct with a slide presentation narrated by us and sprinkled with questions, then our students default to a multiple choice test and essay. There is risk in trying a new lesson, and a greater risk in trying a new assessment. Join the conversation as we learn from Jeff Hampson, a high school history teacher, and the concept of the "unessay."

Naturally SpeakingLinking science with policyEpisode 14. Science is awesome, but how do you ensure your science is relevant? We got thinking about this after reading a comment piece offering tips on interpreting scientific claims published in Nature by Bill Sutherland and colleagues. The Guardian then produced a response listing tips academics should know about policy making here. So in the latest episode of Naturally Speaking, the two James’ chat about communicating science into policy with colleagues from across the Institute.
