Introduction
Rabies Lyssavirus, commonly known as the Rabies virus, is a type of neurotropic virus that causes rabies in mammals, insects, reptiles and birds. Rabies virus is preventable for humans through vaccination or fast-acting shot that contains rabies immune globulin. If bites from rabies-infected animals did not receive immediate care and rabies symptoms start to appear in patients, it is usually fetal.
