It is zoonotic(meaning it can be transferred from animals to humans)  40% of people bitten by suspect rabid animals are children under 15 years of age.  TRANSMISSION  In up to 99% of cases, domestic dogs are responsible for rabies virus transmission to humans. Bats, monkeys and wild dogs also transmit the virus. It is spread to people through bites or scratches, usually via saliva.  SYMPTOMS  Incubation period (timeline between infection and onset of symptoms) is typically 1-3months but may vary from 1week -1 year.  --People with furious rabies exhibit signs of hyperactivity, excitable behaviour, hydrophobia(fear of water) and sometimes aerophobia(fear of drafts or of fresh air).

Next time the I can't    thought come, say I can because God will help me.  SHALOM.
