What is Rabies?

Rabies is a deadly viral disease that can spread to people and animals through bites or scratches from infected animals. It is commonly found in wild animals like stray dogs, bats, raccoons, skunks, and foxes. The rabies virus travels through nerve cells to the brain, where it multiplies quickly, causing severe inflammation of the brain and spinal cord, often leading to death.

Typical Symptoms of Rabies

Diagnostic Questions for Rabies

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Have you experienced any seizures?
  • Do you have a fever?
  • Have you been bitten or stung by bugs or animals?
  • Have you fainted recently?
  • Do you have a headache?

Treatment of Rabies

Once a rabies infection is established, there is no effective treatment, and it usually results in death, although a few people have survived. Therefore, it is recommended to get vaccinated within 24 hours after an animal bite to prevent infection. Protection can last six months to two years, depending on the vaccine type. People who frequently handle wild animals may consider getting booster shots regularly.
