Rabies Virus Explained: Symptoms, Transmission and Prevention
Rabies Virus Explained: Symptoms, Causes, Transmission, and Prevention
In this video, we will discuss everything you need to know about rabies virus.
Rabies, an ancient disease that still poses a deadly threat today. Although rabies is rare in developed countries, it remains a serious public health issue in parts of Africa and Asia, where access to vaccines and treatment is limited. According to the World Health Organization, rabies causes around 59,000 deaths each year, mostly in rural areas where dog vaccination programs are lacking.
Rabies is a viral infection caused by the Rabies virus, a member of the Lyssavirus genus, which belongs to the Rhabdoviridae family. It is an RNA virus, typically affecting mammals and is nearly 100% fatal once symptoms appear.
Rabies primarily attacks the central nervous system, targeting both the brain and the spinal cord, leading to severe neurological symptoms and death if left untreated.
The most common mode of transmission is through the bite or scratch of an infected animal. The virus is present in the saliva of infected animals and enters the body through skin breaks or mucous membranes.
In over 99% of cases, rabies is transmitted by domestic dogs. However, other animals like bats, raccoons, foxes, and skunks can also be carriers. Bats, in particular, have become a leading cause of rabies transmission in the Americas.
Once the rabies virus enters the body, it remains at the site of infection for a period before traveling via the peripheral nerves to the central nervous system. The virus uses the nervous system as a highway, moving rapidly toward the brain. Once it reaches the brain, it causes encephalitis or inflammation of the brain.
From the brain, the virus spreads to other organs like the salivary glands, eyes, and skin. This spread leads to the classic symptoms of rabies, including hydrophobia, paralysis, and eventually death.
The incubation period for rabies varies from one to three months, depending on factors like the location of the bite and the viral load. Early symptoms are often non-specific and include fever, fatigue, and headache-similar to many viral illnesses.
As the virus spreads to the brain, more severe symptoms appear. These are often grouped into two forms: furious rabies and paralytic rabies.
In the more common form, furious rabies, patients experience hyperactivity, confusion, hallucinations, and aggressive behavior. A hallmark symptom is hydrophobia, or a fear of water, caused by painful muscle spasms in the throat when swallowing.
In the less common paralytic rabies, patients experience muscle weakness, beginning at the site of the bite and gradually spreading. Eventually, it leads to total paralysis. This form can take longer to develop but is equally fatal.
Diagnosing rabies can be challenging before symptoms appear. Once symptoms start, the disease is almost always fatal, so early detection is crucial. Lab tests are performed on saliva, skin biopsies, or cerebrospinal fluid to detect the virus.
Post-mortem diagnosis in animals is typically done by examining the brain tissue for Negri bodies, which are inclusions found in neurons infected with rabies.
Once rabies symptoms begin, there is no effective treatment. However, if treated immediately after exposure, rabies is preventable with post-exposure prophylaxis, or PEP. This includes a series of rabies vaccinations and, in some cases, rabies immunoglobulin, which provides immediate passive immunity.
PEP must be given as soon as possible, ideally within the first 24 hours after exposure. Delayed treatment significantly reduces its effectiveness.
Prevention is key when it comes to rabies. Routine vaccination of pets is one of the most effective strategies to control the spread of the virus. Public education on avoiding contact with wild or stray animals is equally important.

Anyone get cold sores from cialis?
It's been 10 days that I have pain in knees and leg pain. Body feels like fever. Body feels hot. If the body also hurts, is it Chikungunya?plz answer me
Chikungunya sypmtoms include Fever, joints pain, and rash. Some other diseases like dengue and zika also have these symptoms, however chikungunya is differentiated by intense joint pain. Kindly visit your physician and get your diagnostic tests conducted as defined in the video.
Saying to yourself its hard to quit makes it a lot more hard.. Think about it, the only thing you need to do is not doing it = meaning less work really and by that i mean time spend smoking or thoughts related to smoking during the day... imagine smoking isn't important/when buying groceries.. You might feel some type of strong emptyness because, you dont know what to do when taking breaks or nothing is happening, but this is just how reality feels without the nicotine high that you might not be aware of. What you feel (i think) is the old real you, before you started smoking with your frinds at school or whenever.. its like being more yourself than "you + being a smoker".. Smoking is like giving yourself to something else than yourself.. but yea im talking mostly to heavy users 10+ cigarettes daily.. Funny how they removed the 10packs so that the chances of addiction becomes easier since companies knows that the more times an actions is repeated the stronger habits it creates.. Knowing this, start building your own habits without smoking, be done with it, so when you get those feelings, remember that you're done with it and that those feelings are trying to take control over you.. its like a spell that has been put on the soul that make people go in loop and repeat the actions and keep the money flowing their way in the proces.. Be aware of things and control your emotions instead, make that a habit and it will become easier the more often you do, now that you dont give the control away to cigarettes.. I repeat "Learn to control your emotions" ... Idk, breath air, taste the improved quality of your senses now that they aren't poisoned.. Take care and remember that self control makes you a stronger person and more you.
obesity is a sickness. which leads to laziness.
When you dont know where to go mentally and physically and emotionally even verbally aids could be a reason when your lost and dont know where to go jesus will be there in hand ❤❤❤❤
