rabies is a viral disease caused by RHABDOVIRUS. this virus is generally found in the saliva of a mad dog or fox or any other member of that family. it attacks the nervous system and causes HYDROPHOBIA. in extreme cases a person may die due to dehydration. this is no cure for disease. it can be prevented by animal immunization. tetanus vaccine or anti rabies vaccine may be helpful.
