RABIES is a disease produced
by the bite Of a mad animal, espe-
cially of a mad or rabid dog. Med
ically, it is known as "hydropho-
bia,' "hydro' meaning water and
"phobia' meaning fear. In rabies,
n of the symptoms is fear of and
inability to swallow liquids.
Hydrophobia is not a major pub
lie health problem in the United
States. 1t would appear that the
annual number of cases in human
beings averages slightly under 100
per year. However, in a person
who has Just been bitten by a dog
the possibility of rabies developing
is a very serious matter to him
since the disease, once it develops,
is always fatal.
Rabies is caused by a fltrablc
virus, that is, an organism so small
that it can pass through the open
ings in a porcelain filter. The virus
is found in the saliva, in the sail
vary glands and in certain nerve
through a bite and, rarely, by con-
tamination of an open wound by
infected saliva,
Sucn animals as dogs, wolves,
foxes, coyotes, hyenas and jackals
may be affected by rabies, but
through the bites Of these animals
it may be transmitted to other ami

tionship between the disorder ana
the so-called dog days"
About n out of every SIX per-
sons who is bitten by a rabid dog
will develop rabies if no proven
tive measures are taken, but the
chances of developing the disease
will depend on the number of bites.
the type Of wound, whether the
bitten part was covered or bare
when the biting occurred and upon
the animal doing the biting. The
danger decreases in the following
order: wolves, cats, dogs and other
animals.
The time at which the disease
will develop varies, depending IN
where the bite is located. The
period is shortest for bites on the
face and longer for those on the
foot, and the period is shorter in
children than in groWnups. For
most human cases, the period
varies from 20 to 90 days, the
shortest being II and the longest
1l3 days.
If the animal causing a bite is
obviously rabid, if the animal can
not be caught, or if the bite is on
the face or neck. injections of anti
rabic vaccine should be begun at
once and completed within If days
if possible. If, in other instances,
the animal has been caught, and at
