The death of Khadeera Banu, a four-year-old girl, underscores the critical public health concern of rabies resulting from dog bites. The child, who was attacked by a stray dog in Davangere, Karnataka, four months prior, passed away in a Bengaluru hospital. The dog bite inflicted extensive injuries, leading to her initial treatment at a local facility and later, at the Rajiv Gandhi Hospital in Bengaluru. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the risks associated with encounters with stray animals and the importance of timely medical intervention and preventative measures, such as vaccination.
