If you are bitten by an animal, it is important to seek medical attention right away, as you may have been infected with rabies. The progression of the disease may be halted with early administration of the rabies vaccine, but if treatment is delayed until symptoms appear, survival is unlikely.
As this video explains, rabies begins to manifest with flu-like symptoms, such as fever and achiness. Within days, neurologic abnormalities appear, including hallucinations, insomnia, and excessive salivation. From there, the disease quickly progress to paralysis and coma, with death occurring soon after.
