Rabies is an often fatal viral infection primarily spread by infected animals.
Rabies is spread by infected saliva that enters the body through a bite or broken skin.
The virus travels from the wound to the brain, where it causes swelling, called inflammation.
This inflammation results in the symptoms of the disease.
Most rabies deaths occur in children.
The actual time between infection and when you get sick (called the "incubation period") ranges from 10 days - 7 years.
The average incubation period is 3 - 7 weeks.
