Rabies is usually spread through an animal bite. Animals most likely to spread rabies in the U.S. include bats, coyotes, foxes, skunks, and raccoons.
Symptoms include fever, headache, excess salivation, muscle spasms, paralysis, and mental confusion.
Seek immediate medical attention after a bite or suspected bite. The treatment for rabies is 7 shots in the stomach because human veins are too little to handle the medicine if given by topical injection or IV. A vaccine is able to prevent infection.
