• Rabies vaccine to be distributed via air drops across Georgia (wsbradio.com) — Lawrenceville residents are being reminded about rabies risks as federal and state agencies prepare large-scale aerial drops of oral rabies vaccine baits across north Georgia later this month. While flights will focus on other counties, officials note recent rabies cases in metro Atlanta, including a rabid bat and cat found in Lawrenceville, and urge people to avoid wildlife, keep pets vaccinated, and leave any vaccine baits undisturbed.
