Time: 7:30 to 9:00 pm
The Malaysian Nature Society (MNS) and Sarawak Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SSPCA) are jointly organising an awareness talk about rabies, The Science of Rabies. The talk will be held at the Lime Tree Hotel, Jalan Abel, Kuching, on Wednesday, August 22, 2018 at 7.30pm.
The speaker, Dr Samuel Kiyui, graduated from University Pertania Serdang in 1978 as a veterinary, and is the owner of Country Veterinary Centre, here in Kuching. He is an active member of MNS and SSPCA.
Rabies, a potentially fatal viral disease, hit the headlines in June 2017, when it spread to Sarawak. Dr Samuel aims to develop our understanding of the different types of rabies, the mechanisms by which it spread, and ways in which it affects different species. He will discuss rabies from the scientific perspective.
SSPCA has since June of last year, worked closely with government agencies including city or town councils and the Department of Veterinary Services, to increase not only awareness of the disease, but to stop the spread of rabies. Datin Dona Drury-Wee, President of SSPCA, will discuss this as well as other work which they do.
