With the recent outbreak of Rabies in Manhattan’s Central Park and Brooklyn as well, Hong Kong has barred the entry of pets (dogs, cats, ferrets,etc.) from the two New York City boroughs.

Applications to the regulatory authorities in Hong Kong for expatriates & relocatees moving to the island and its territories are being made with Rabies vaccinations histories being required, along with Rabies Antibody test results (RNATT & FAVN-OIE) from submitted serum samples.

Updates on the NYC Rabies / Hong Kong situation will be provided in Air Animal’s Blog.
