Subgroup analysis indicated that the random pooled prevalence of rabies was 28% (95% CI: 0\u201381%) in animals and 33% (95% CI: 20\u201347%) in humans. Furthermore, a subgroup analysis across regions indicated that the pooled prevalence was 78% in Addis Ababa, 46% in Oromia, 40% in Tigray and 5% in Amhara regional states.
