Abstract
Purpose: analysis of the epidemic situation of rabies infection in the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic and assessment of the level of epidemic threat for this infection for 2023.

Results: For the period from 2015 to March 2023 in the Donetsk People's Republic, 4 cases of rabies infection in people were registered (in 2016, 2021, 2022), which ended in death due to the untimely appeal of those bitten for specialized medical help.

This infection has been laboratory confirmed in animals: 2015 — in 33 cases, 2016 — in 50 cases, 2017 — in 50 cases, 2018 — in 42 cases, 2019 — in 56 cases, 2020 — in 44 cases, 2021 — in 33 cases, 2022 — in 32 cases.
