Rabies is primarily a disease of vampire bats living in cages of South America. ( Stalactites and stalgmites.) Man is accidentally found in life cycle of rabies and he does not spread the disease. Very special feature of rabies in man is 'Hydrophobia'. Site of water, sound of water and even mentioning the word water may precipitate, severe laryngospasm. That proves the diagnosis of rabies. Patient dies of encephalitis. There is almost 100 % mortality. Recently few patints are servived through vigorous and careful care and is highly creditable to medical science.
