Rabies is Big Concern for Zoonotic Importance and Public Health Concern
Journal Title: International Journal of Zoology and Animal Biology - Year 2021, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Rabies is fatal (rare exceptions) encephalitis of all warm-blooded mammals but is most common in carnivores. It is caused by a lyssavirus and manifested mainly in either a furious or dumb (paralytic) form. It is characterized by altered behavior, clinical signs of maina, and by an ascending paralysis. The infection usually originates in a bite wound and ascends a nerve trunk to the cord and brain. The incubation period is variable and, on occasions, has been longer than six months.
