  • Animal bites always leads to the fear of contracting rabies, and newspapers readily report rabies outbreaks. Have you ever wondered what makes rabies so newsworthy? What makes rabies a serious infection? How does it affect our body? What countermeasures
    do we have to fight it? This video explores the answers to all of these questions.
    This video was made by McMaster students Archita Srinath, Haider Abed, Akshay Venkatesh, Kyra Posterski, and Cindy Li in collaboration with the McMaster Demystifying Medicine Program.

    I actually got bitten by a rabid dog when I was a kid. I was about like 9 or 12 and it was right on the back side of my leg where the knee is 🦵🏽. I was walking to my bus for school when this random dog with foam from its mouth and red eyes bit and dragged me a good two feet before the bus driver helped. My leg was so weak I could barely put weight on it and I felt very tired after that. I immediately told my pops and I was rushed to the clinic where they gave me all the shots necessary. I had no idea how fatal and crazy Rabies can be so now I’m just so astonished that I survived this horrible infection and I used to have a gnarly scar where the bite mark was but it’s really hard to find now. I’m 23 years old today.

      You were not infected, and judging by your claims of "Legs so weak" and "Very tired" is a good indicator your making this crap up! The first general symptom that is first presented is a tingling sensation in the affected area, there is no "Oh noes im so weak imma just pass out and wake up a zombie" stop making up serious shit
      such as this. And the bad part is a lot of people bought into your story! I hope you become the 0.001 percent that dies of raccon roundworm.

      I would say it’s intentional in that its the only reason the virus spreads. Remember that viruses evolve just like livings beings do. If a virus is not able to infect other things, it dies off. The aggression caused by rabies is a side effect that allows it to spread, but doesn’t mean the virus deliberately intends to make their hosts aggressive.

      From WHO: 5.42 million death from January 2020 to December 2021.
      Rabies virus is scary by its symptoms and because without treatment it is a death sentence.
      The history of the rabie vaccine is quite interesting and give a good hindsight to anti vaccine thinking.
      Pasteur would have been stoned to death would have he failed.

    I was hoping to read some educational and interesting comments about this after seeing a rabid coyote but when I scrolled down, all I see is a bunch of negative comments saying "blow your nose"..... I think she would know if her nose is stuffed and would have done that before recording. 🙄 Can y'all be any more ignorant??
    i dont know if she is sick or not but for me, my nose is smaller on the inside and I have asthma so when I talk, my voice is very soft and my words don't always articulate right so I find it very disrespectful reading all of these rude comments when she literally has nothing wrong and y'all are just judgemental af. If you don't like her voice, just say it and say why nicely. don't be like "blow your nose"... that's not how to talk to people especially when you don't even know what's actually going on or why she sounds that way. I'm pretty sure most of y'all wouldn't say that if y'all weren't hiding behind your computer screen 🤷‍♀️

    Should I get the shot or am I just a hypochondriac?
    Was in the backyard with my dad, who was brushing the pool with a broom. Evening, skies were cloudy and looked stormy to the right of where I was standing in the yard. Felt what felt like rainwater from a slight sprinkle land onto my wrist. (Which was possible, given the weather.) Looked down at my wrist, saw a slight, very tiny puff near an also miniature bullseye. Did not see anything fly at me, did not feel anything other than the, “bite.” There wasn’t any pain or itchiness, just the mark. The mark very shortly went away. Dad says that I was just imagining the wound and it was poolwater from whatever he was doing that landed on my wrist. I shouldn’t be stressed to tears that a tiny, rabid bat bit me and then flew away but here we are

    I find it highly appropriate that lyssaviruses are shaped like bullets.
    Some points you forgot to cover:
    -Rabies vaccines MUST be administered BEFORE symptoms appear. Once symptoms do appear, the vaccine does no good.
    -If your fully vaccinated pet is exposed to rabies, you should quarantine it at home for 30-45 days. Your vet may recommend a post-exposure booster even if your pet recently had its regular booster. If your pet is NOT fully vaccinated, your vet or animal control may require that it be quarantined at a vet's office or shelter for six months.
    -Not all exposures to rabies are obvious. For example, if you find a bat in your room or your child's room, and you were not awake, alert or present when the bat got in, you must assume rabies exposure, even if you or your child have no visible bites or scratches. The same applies to an elderly person or person with disabilities who is left unattended with a bat, and who is unable to effectively determine or communicate whether they have been exposed. If you can SAFELY capture the bat or unvaccinated animal, you can turn it over to animal control for euthanization and testing (sadly, rabies tests can only be performed on animals postmortem).
    -Rabies in humans is no longer 100% fatal, even after symptoms appear. But once symptoms do appear, survival rates drop below 1%. Treatment of active human rabies involves putting the patient into a coma and managing the encephalitis that the rabies causes. This allows the disease to run its course and gives the patient a chance to recover. The younger the patient is, the better their chances of both survival and full recovery, due to the ability of a young brain to heal compared to an adult brain. Rabies survivors usually have to undergo extensive physical and cognitive therapy, and most have lifelong disabilities.
    -Rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) costs around $20,000. However, the financial and emotional toll of human rabies is far, far greater, as you or your loved one will either suffer horrendously or be stuck in a coma for months, then, assuming you survive, have to endure expensive therapy for the rest of your life. If you've been exposed, get the PEP. You throw five to ten times more money at college than you will ever need to throw at avoiding one of the most terrifying diseases known to man. Financial help for PEP is often available, and sometimes the city or a pet owner will have to pay for it or reimburse you, depending on the circumstances of the exposure.
    -Only placental mammaloids (those that carry a baby to full term and are connected via a placenta, rather than using a pouch or laying eggs) are known to reliably carry and transmit rabies. There have been a very small handful of cases recorded in possums, but 95% of possums exposed to rabies will never develop the disease due to their low body temperatures. A form of rabies called Australian bat lyssavirus is endemic to Australia and is clinically identical to common rabies, but it has never been shown to infect Australia's marsupials. ABL is treated the same as common rabies, and the vaccine for common rabies carries the same effectiveness against ABL.
    -Birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish will never carry or transmit any sort of lyssavirus. So you don't have to worry about getting rabies from helping birds.
    -Lyssaviruses, including common rabies, originated in bats, which is why bats are considered a leading vector for rabies. Other common vectors in the US include skunks, raccoons and unvaccinated feral cats. Around the world, the leading rabies vector is stray or feral dogs. Rabies is considered a neglected tropical disease, as it is almost entirely preventable and still kills up to 150 people every day in developing countries.
    -Rabies is practically unheard of in rodents smaller than a marmot, because the bite that transmits the disease pretty much always kills the rodent. So your odds of getting rabies from a mouse or squirrel are practically zero.
    -About one out of every five rabies cases lacks the furious stage, in which the animal acts aggressive, fears water and foams at the mouth. This is why rabies and distemper, two deadly diseases in animals, can look so similar, and a postmortem test is needed to distinguish them. Distemper doesn't cause aggression at all, but it is a neurological disease that causes seizures. And it can affect your pets if they're not vaccinated against it. If you see an animal in clear neurological distress (having seizures, can't control its back legs, etc.), the best thing to do for it is to have it euthanized and tested. If it's a dog or cat, first determine whether it's someone's epileptic pet that got loose. And whenever possible, let animal control pick it up and determine whether euthanization is required. Never try to confront it yourself.

      What is the dormancy period of rabies? I got attacked by three dogs 11 years ago and I'm now in constant worry and stress (seriously I'm often almost having a panic attack at the thought). I wasn't bitten as I was wearing heavy clothes but my jeans were shredded. No visible bites and scratches were seen. I would like advice since you offered such a detailed response. Thank you p.s I think I remember some of its drool getting into my face and area as I held it background my face.

      @@budgetmicro5387 The record is eight years, but it was also an extreme outlier. Odds are the victim had untreated hypothyroidism, which dropped his temperature and increased the incubation period. The incubation period for 99.99% of the population reaches its absolute maximum at two years, and averages two months.
      If you were attacked in the US, Canada, Mexico or a developed island nation (e.g. the UK), you're fine. Canine rabies has been eradicated in those regions due to aggressive vaccination and/or quarantine programs, so it's rare for even stray dogs to have it. And rabid dogs never attack in packs.

    • @jequirity1
      @jequirity1 5 років тому +3

      If the infected host cannot swallow, saliva builds up in their mouth and they begin to drool. The drool is contaminated with the rabies virus. If another mammal comes into contact with the drool, that provides a possible pathway for said animal to become infected, whether through injuries, small cuts, or through ingesting it during eating, grooming, etc.
      It’s also one of the reasons why rabid animals become aggressive and will try to bite- biting opens up a wound, and now saliva containing the rabies virus is being introduced directly into the other animal’s bloodstream.
