How do you cure fox rabies?
Do you mean to cure a fox with rabies or a person infected with rabies from a fox? In either case, any rabies infection is essentially the same. The person or animal must be vaccinated promptly before any symptoms show. One symptoms appear the subject is almost guaranteed to die with a survival rate well below 1%. At this point, if it is the fox that is infected, then it should be euthanized. The only treatment known to be effective on people once symptomatic is the Milwaukee protocol, in which the patient is put in an induced coma with a carefully selected group of medicines. With this treatment the survival rate is between 10-20%. Survivors face a long recovery.

How can you get rabies?
You can contract the rabies virus from any mammal, including humans. Once you have contracted rabies your survival rate 0% (Unless you have got your shot) Rabies is a highly neurotropic virus that evades immune surveillance by its sequestration in the nervous system. Once you get it you are pretty much screwed, only a handful of people (i don't think over 5 ) have ever survived this virus (They were induced into a coma).
