I agree with the others. Get a shot now. The survivability if rabies is virtually 0 when symptoms show up

Wait? Somebody survived rabies after symptoms show up?!

One girl did after they put her in an induced coma and hopped her up on antivirals. The treatment was called the Milwaukee Protocol but has only worked once.

Still sounds awful.

I’m so glad my doc insists on jabbing me with almost every single vaccine he can get his hands on.

IIRC, there's one tribe of humans somewhere that regularly survives rabies, but it's some pretty entrenched genetics that they can't replicate yet.

But beyond that, it's basically a sure thing you'll die.
