Rabies is a preventable viral disease most often transmitted through the bite of a rabid animal. The rabies virus infects the central nervous system of animals and humans alike, ultimately causing disease in the brain and death. This year’s Malden Rabies Clinic will be held on Saturday, May 11 from 10:00 a.m. to noon at the Malden Central Fire Station (1 Sprague St., corner of Salem Street). The fire station is located directly across the street from Malden High School (77 Salem St.).
