Rabies is almost invariably fatal if post-
exposure prophylaxis is not administered
prior to the onset of severe symptoms.

body

•10. Fever
7. • 11. Difficulty swallowing (drinking
water will trigger spasms in the
throat, so people become afraid
of water hydrophobic)

A: there must be the possibility of a cure, the treatment
through regular therapy and drug delivery of
antibiotics for the virus to dog bites is not spread to
other parts of the body

area and please drink two day.and if you feel sick or
