Rabies Are not What People Think!
While I am not an expert, I like to do research on disorders and disease that affect the general population. With that being said, the high cases of rabies occur in Africa and Asia. Thousands of people (50,000 people) die from rabies annually. Shockingly, more than 3 billion individuals inhabit in areas where rabies take place.
Some people think they can get rabies after being bitten by a rat. Surprisingly, rats are not as poisonous as one think, they have very little to no rabies. People still have to be aware of these flirty animals because they can contain germs or diseases; however, they are not as poisons as other animals, such as cats, dogs, and bats. People can develop rabies after they are bitten, scratched, or touched contagious animals. Coming in contact with these animals' saliva will pose a threat of encountering rabies from these vicious creatures.
Therefore, a person has a higher chance of developing rabies from these warm-blooded animals besides rats. However, I do not blame people who still think they should be wary of rats containing rabies since they are somewhat related to bats, which is a valid assumption. Individuals may assume rats have rabies based on the fear of the animal's appearance. Overall, if cats or dogs look sick by having cuts around the eyes or mouth, they should keep their distance from this potentially infected animal. If the dog is drooling profusely, the human should play it safe. . Please keep a careful eye on the kids who love to play with dogs and cats, some may not know that they are play with an infected animal.
Signals and symptoms of rabies include confusion, fear of water, high fever, tingling, inability to move parts of the body, and loss of consciousness. The duration of signals of rabies varies. To elaborate, it could take days, weeks, months, or a year for people to feel the affect of rabies.
If a person picks up a bat or gets bite by a dog, they should wash their hands with soap, water, alcohol, and detergent for fifteen minutes, which is a golden rule of thumb that is somewhat effective. Additionally, people can fight the disease if they are rush to the hospital by receiving rabies vaccine, a shot, by a doctor ASAP.
Unfortunately, rabies is usually a fatal and life threatening disease. People more often than not suffer from brain damage when the viruses travel and attacks the brain, which causes severe and permanent brain damage. While the disease is typically deadly, a few people prevented themselves from dying by participating in the Milwaukee experiment, which saved 5 out of 43 patients lives (equals 8 percent success rate).
There was a 2004 story of Jeanna Giese, 15 years old, suffering rabies after she picked up a dead bat in her room. At first she did not feel the effects of the rabies; however, her condition deteriorated as time progress within a month. Therefore, she was rushed into the emergency room where the doctor tried an experiment on her known as the Milwaukee experiment, which put her into a coma. The Milwaukee experiment is where the doctor use antiviral medication to make sure the rabies does not touch teenage patients brain.
A month later, she regained her consciousness, which meant that the operation was a success. She was checked into the hospital on September 4, 2004 and exited the medical center on January 1, 2005. While she suffer little to no brain damage, she had to relearned how to walk and talk all over again. The teenager decided this experience as being a baby all over again. Successfully, she managed to graduate from college in 2011. Some people suspect that this young lady had a mild form of rabies, which is why she was able to beat the disease. This discussion is open to debate, which means it is up to reader to decide if she had mild or severe rabies.
Once more, if more information is need about this fatal disease, please do research or seek consultation from a primary physician or doctor. Thanks.
