Rabies disease in Indonesia is one of the public health problems with a high level of endemicity that has spread in 24 out of 34 provinces in Indonesia. In Indonesia, there are an average of 80,861 cases and 103 deaths per year from rabies transmitting animal bites (GHPR).

The population in this study is 42 cases of GHPR, all of which act as samples. The results showed that most cases of rabies were experienced by women (52.4%), the age of most people with rabies was the occupations of most of the sufferers (23.8%) were students and housewives, the ownership status of the animals was mostly wild animals (66.67%), and the bite history was mostly unprovoked (92.8%).
