Who was the first person to receive the rabies vaccine?
Joseph lister
When did pasteur test the rabies vaccine on a human?
Louis Pasteur tested the rabies vaccine on a human for the first time in July 1885. The patient was a nine-year-old boy named Joseph Meister, who had been bitten by a rabid dog. Pasteur administered the vaccine over a series of days, ultimately saving Meister's life and demonstrating the effectiveness of the rabies vaccine. This marked a significant milestone in the history of vaccination and immunology.
Who prevented rabies?

When did Joseph Messner die?
Joseph Meister was the first person to be treated from rabies. He was treated by Louis Pasteur. Joseph Meister was a 9-year-old boy who had been attacked by a rabid dog (which he had provoked by poking it with a stick), an automatic death sentence at the time (1885). Louis Pasteur administered an early, experimental version of his rabies vaccine to Meister, who survived - the first person in history so treated. Good thing it worked: Pasteur was not a licensed physician, and could have been prosecuted, but since he saved the boy from an inevitable, agonizing death, legalities were overlooked and he became a national hero. Meister went on to become somewhat of a hero himself, as the caretaker at the Pasteur Institute: In 1940, he committed suicide at age 64 by shooting himself with his WWI service revolver, rather than allow the Wehrmacht to enter the Pasteurs' crypt.
Who were responsible for discovering the rabies vaccine?
Two French scientists, Louis Pasteur and Émile Roux, developed the first rabies vaccination in 1885. This vaccine was first used on a human on July 6, 1885, on nine-year-old Joseph Meister (1876–1940), who had been mauled by a rabid dog. Everyone was very surprised that he survived.
Who developed the vaccines for rabbies and anthrax?
Louis Pasteur developed the rabies vaccine, which was first used in 1885 on a boy named Joseph Meister who had been bitten by a rabid dog. The anthrax vaccine was developed by Louis Pasteur as well in the late 19th century.
How is Rabies Cured?
Rabies cannot be cured. It may only be prevented via vaccinations. If a human is bitten by a suspected rabies animal, the vaccination must be administered within 2 hours of the bite so as to produce inhibitory antibodies against the rabies virus. But once a person is infected with rabies, they will be dead within 2 weeks. Rabies has a 100% death rate in non-vaccinated individuals unfortunately...
Where is rabies not found?
Currently there are only three places rabies is not found: the Antarctic, the United Kingdom and Australia. The Antarctic is free of rabies because there are no competent mammalian hosts for the disease. The UK and Australia are free of rabies because they are island nations that have aggressively prevented any animal that could be infected with rabies from getting into the country. This is an on-going and expensive preventive measure, but it is much cheaper than dealing with rabies in the wildlife population.
Who developed a vaccine against rabies and smallpox?
The great scientist Louis Pasteur invented both the vaccines.
How do you know if your dog have raibes?
...Do you mean; How do you know if your dog has rabies? If so, you would have to bring it to a vet to get it tested in order to know for sure, but foaming at the mouth is a big indicator that they may have rabies. Also a significant mood change, if they get angry and aren't usually angry, then they could have rabies. Be careful!! People can get rabies from animals!! Happens a lot, but can be prevented! Bring your dog to a vet and get it tested so you aren't hurt. ((Rabies is very deadly if not taken care of!)
What is a cure for raibies?
There is no cure for rabies once clinical symptoms appear; the disease is almost always fatal at that stage. However, rabies can be effectively prevented if post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is administered promptly after exposure to the virus, typically through a series of rabies vaccinations and sometimes rabies immune globulin. This treatment must be initiated before symptoms develop to be effective. Vaccination of pets and wildlife control are crucial preventive measures against rabies.
Who is the French scientist who used his knowledge of germs to develop vaccines against anthrax and rabies?
Louis Pasteur
