- The European Union conducted rabies control programs in Kosovo from 2010 to 2015, which included oral vaccination campaigns for foxes occurring biannually in spring and autumn.
- The study analyzed how bait uptake and vaccination success in the fox population varied seasonally, revealing that bait uptake was generally higher in winter after autumn vaccinations, while lower in summer during juvenile dispersal.
- Factors such as temperature and geographic location seemed to affect outcomes, but the dataset wasn't strong enough to draw firm conclusions on these aspects, although overall trends were clear.
The European Union has used instrument for pre-accession (IPA) funds to provide technical assistance and supplies for the eradication, monitoring and control of rabies in several pre-accession countries. As a result, since 2010, multi-annual oral rabies vaccination (ORV) programmes for eliminating fox rabies have been launched in six Western Balkan countries. Here the implementation of the ORV programme in Kosovo, the smallest of the West Balkan countries, is described.
