The veterinary clinics, which opened on September 26, aim to vaccinate animals and raise awareness about the dangers of rabies. The campaign, organized by the Regional Commission for Agricultural Development, targets several areas in the governorate, including the cities of Bajah, Djerba, and Tebar. The clinics will provide free vaccinations for pets and livestock, as well as offer guidance on animal health and distribute informational brochures.
The campaign will continue in various areas of the governorate, with the next stop scheduled for October 3 in the city of Nefza. Other areas, including the delegacies of Amdoun and Tberqsq, will also be covered in the coming weeks. The goal is to protect animal health and prevent the spread of rabies, which poses a risk to both animal and human health.
The veterinary clinics will offer a range of services, including free vaccinations against rabies, awareness-raising activities, and guidance on animal health. Citizens will also have the opportunity to ask questions and receive advice from veterinarians. The campaign is part of a broader effort to promote animal health and prevent the spread of diseases.
According to the Regional Commission for Agricultural Development, the campaign is designed to reach all areas of the governorate. A schedule has been drawn up to ensure that all parts of the region are covered. The commission is working to raise awareness about the importance of animal health and the risks posed by rabies.
The launch of the veterinary clinics in Bajah follows similar initiatives in other parts of Tunisia. In the governorate of Tozeur, for example, authorities reported a 100% vaccination rate against rabies for owned animals, with no cases of the disease reported in recent years. Similar campaigns have also been launched in other governorates, including Jendouba and Zaghouan.
The campaign in Bajah is part of a broader effort to promote animal health and prevent the spread of diseases in Tunisia. The authorities are working to raise awareness about the importance of vaccination and animal health, and to provide citizens with access to veterinary services.
