It's a New Day in Public Health.
The Florida Department of Health works to protect, promote & improve the health of all people in Florida through integrated state, county, & community efforts.
A raccoon in the area of Frost Aster Drive in Riverview is the first confirmed case of rabies for 2019 in Hillsborough County. No rabies alert has been issued. An alert is not being issued since this is a single case found in wildlife. However, this incident serves as a reminder to ensure pets are up-to-date on rabies vaccination. It should be expected that there is always some level of the virus in our wildlife population.
