Officials in the eastern city of Jining said Thursday they would kill all dogs within three miles of areas where rabies had been found, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
The measure came in response to the deaths of 16 people from rabies in Jining in the last eight months, Xinhua said. It didn't say when the cull would begin or how the animals would be killed. It said the city had about 500,000 dogs.
Rabies cases are on the rise in China, with more than 2,000 people dying from the disease each year. Only 3 percent of the country's dogs are vaccinated against rabies.
Last week, a county in southwestern Yunnan province killed 50,000 dogs after three people died of rabies. The massacre provoked unusually pointed criticism in state media, while the activist group People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals called for a boycott of Chinese products.
Other slaughters have been reported elsewhere in China this year, although the government says it has no standard policy of destroying dogs.
"I think this is completely insane," Zhang Luping, founder of the Beijing Human and Animal Environmental Education Center, said Friday in response to Jining's announcement.
"What's more, this really damages our national image and sets a really bad example to show how lazy and inconsiderate those local government officials are," Zhang said.
Zhang said there were no laws under which citizens could stop the killings, but said she and other animal protection activists were reaching out through the media to try to change policy.
"I think this brutal and cold-blooded campaign should stop as soon as possible," Zhang said.
People answering phones at Jining's city government and epidemic control center refused to comment or said they weren't authorized to release information to media.
The World Health Organization has not directly criticized the slaughters, but WHO experts have said they underscore a lack of coordination and other problems with China's health care system.
The killings have prompted widespread commentary in state media and online forums, with opinions strong divided.
Rabies attacks the nervous system. In humans, it normally results in death within a week after symptoms develop.

If you cook the meat thouroughly, does it kill the rabis? Cause that's a
lot of wasted food right there. |

Good...kill them all...I'm a dog lover but I still say if they've got rabies, |
shoot the fuŠkers. Especially since the problem is so dambed big that you've got
to try to get the attention of U.S. Activists.

Aweeee...16 people....the place is over crowded anyways...look at it as |

Maybe it will take the place of SARS...then you can send it over here |
too.....bastigs!!

Well, that is alot of bad meat...I guess they'll be losing a little weight this |
winter.

Ya know...our prime cut meats have mold grown on |
them....mold....rabies.....eh..I say try it....

What's insane are our prices... |

Eh...just increase the Electronics export and we'll forgive you. |
| Quote: | Zhang said there were no laws under which citizens could stop the

If people don't want their dogs killed, then they need to make sure that they're |
vaccinated.
| Quote: | "I think this brutal and cold-blooded campaign should stop as soon as

So he prefers to let the dogs live and risk the lives of the people of China??? |
Sounds just like a U.S. Activist, he'd probably fit on the branch next to Darell
Hannah.

I don't blame them. |

Why yes, it does kill the rabies and leave one with a tasty and nutritious
meal. I heartily recommend the Vietnamese Pho with nice tender puppy meat,
yum!
On a related note; todays irrational hysteria for no good reason seems to
be:
http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7004449472
Please note: none of the bats tested positive. And no evidence of bites
have been found. And the species of bat that bites one unnoticed during
sleep is the vampire bat. Which does not exist in North America. It is
able to do so because it's saliva contains an anesthetic. It also leaves a
bloody bite mark, because the saliva also contains an anti-coagulant.
But let's go ahead and start the injections for rabies in 1000 girls
anyway. Can't be too cautious, can we?
Good grief, what a pack of idiots!

Heh. I hope they weren't using a computer or a telephone to do that
calling. Or a pen. I hope they weren't wearing any clothes or shoes either.
Be damb hard pressed to find any of the above that wasn't at least
made from Chinese parts anymore.
