	The Manila Times Internet Edition \| REGIONS > Rabies grips Bacolod City; shoot-to-kill stray dogs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		BACOLOD CITY: “Shoot to kill.” This was the order issued by Mayor Liberty Manzano of Candoni against stray dogs after the death of one and 57 other persons had tested positive of rabies infection.
		Gloria Parreño, rabies coordinator of Bacolod, said this can be traced to low vaccination records in the previous year where only 12,016 canines were vaccinated compared with 141,142 vaccinations conducted by the province.
		The increase in human rabies in Bacolod prompted the city health office, the city ve-terinarians office and the mayor’s office to conduct massive education campaign in schools and barangays and augmenting the budget for another 7,000 doses of vaccines for dogs—but simply, this was not enough based on the increase in cases.
