What happens if one gets rabies?

It can take one month, two months, or even

longer after one is bitten / licked or scratched by a rabid animal to know that he / she is affected but by then its usually too late for doctors to help. The rabies virus attaches to nerve cells, working its way through the nervous system. Eventually the virus makes its way to the brain.

29

general symptoms).
