The word rabies comes from the Latin "rabere," meaning to rage or rave.
humans and mammals get rabies when infectious saliva is introduced into the body, usually through a bite from an infected pet or animal. Rabies transmissions from other types of exposure are extremely rare. so if somebody you know or somebody in the household owns a pet they should get it checked out weekly. after about 30 to 50 days from exposure to a rapid animal.
Rabies started from an animal with a brain malfunction that haves a disease.
