Yes, almost 100% of animals (and humans) that develop clinical signs of rabies will die of rabies, generally within 2 weeks of the first clinical signs. There has been one case report of a treatment regimen that allowed one teenage girl in the US to survive a clinical case of rabies, but the treatment has not been tried again in its entirety and is not considered a standard treatment.

Rabies cannot be cured. It may only be prevented via vaccinations.
