Related to the socialeconomical variable of the familiar group from the rabies casuistic come, the high positivity corresponding to the middle low social stratus. In this sense, the used statistical analysis showed association among the middle high and the middle low socialeconomical level (P < 0.005) found the same result among the middle and middle low socialeconomical levels, such as between the same result and the low social condition. Consecuently, the registered human casuistic during 1995-2004, come from neighborhoods and parrish where the low social condition predominant, followed for the middle low socialeconomical level; the child population below of twelve years of age were the most affected.
