Rabies is a viral infection of the central nervous system, which means it affects the brain, spinal cord, and their surrounding membranes. A person with rabies has difficulty drinking because the salivary glands are also affected. For this reason, rabies is sometimes referred to as hydrophobia, which means fear of water

∙ 15y agoYES - The rabies virus travels through the nervous system, eventually inflaming the brain. Early symptoms include irritability, headache, fever, and sometimes itching or pain at the site of the bite. The disease eventually progresses to paralysis, spasms of the throat muscles, convulsions, and delirium. Without preventive treatment, it is fatal.
