Rabies is a communicable viral disease that primarily affects mammals, including humans. The usual mode of transmission for the virus involves the infected animal's saliva, frequently transmitted through bites or scratches. It attacks the central nervous system, leading to severe neurological symptoms and, if left untreated, is almost always fatal. Common carriers of the rabies virus include dogs, bats, raccoons, and foxes. In regions where rabies is prevalent, control measures involve vaccination programs for domestic animals and wildlife, aiming to break the transmission cycle. Prompt medical intervention is critical if someone is bitten or scratched by a potentially rabid animal. Post-exposure prophylaxis, a series of rabies vaccinations, can prevent the onset of symptoms if administered shortly after exposure. When symptoms manifest, the disease is almost invariably lethal. Preventive measures include avoiding contact with unfamiliar animals, especially wildlife, and ensuring that pets receive regular rabies vaccinations. Public health campaigns educate communities on the importance of seeking medical attention after animal bites and adhering to rabies vaccination schedules. While rabies remains a serious threat, particularly in certain parts of the world, vaccination programs, public awareness, and timely medical interventions contribute to controlling its spread and protecting human and animal populations from this communicable disease.
