The authors also identified risk clusters for rabies based on modeled potential distributions. While we appreciate this work, which fills knowledge gaps regarding the epidemiology of vampire-borne rabies in Latin America, we are also concerned because some of the data presented merits re-evaluation and correction.enRabies virusColombiaArtículo
