Rabies Virus – Very Difficult to Control

Rabies is spread only by the bite of an infected animal. The virus of the disease is introduced into the nerves torn by the bite. It takes three to six weeks to develop, through sometimes much longer. The victim of the disease has a wild desire for water but has bits at its very sight. It is useless to attempt at pouring water down his throat because it leads to more fits that close the muscles around his throat and force him to fight for every breath he takes. In the end, death mercifully puts an end to his suffering. The bitten dogs show typical signs of the rabies. They became restless, they become restless, they wander aimlessly, hitting against objects; they eat strange things – cloth, sticks, and stones. They bark as if something were struck in their throats. They bite other dogs and so the circle of infection widens. The vaccine for treatment of rabies was first discovered by Louis Pasteur, the celebrated French scientist. Since then the terror of the rabies has been controlled. But the dogs must be taken proper care of, and, if necessary, killed. It is not possible to vaccinate everybody, because vaccination sometimes makes some people ill.
