Rabies can spread to people animals if bitten by a rabid animal.

How does Rabies Spread?
Rabies is commonly found in foxes, raccoons, skunks and bats in the US.
Nucleoprotein
Even though it's fatal, rabies is vaccine-preventable.
Glycoprotein
4. Virus spreads to nerves multiplies in other organs
1. Rabid raccoon bite
3. Virus causes brain to become inflamed
2. Virus spreads to nervous sys. and infects it
Membrane Bilayer
Nucleoprotein
Spike Proteins
RNA
How Rabies Replicates:
Rabies is spread through direct contact (animal bite/broken skin) with a rabid animal. Once infected with rabies, it'll take up to 2 weeks to show symptoms.
1. Absorption2. Virus enters cell3. Membrane is destroyed/removed4. Virus copied DNA turns it into RNA
Before showing symptoms, the virus spreads to the nervous system, infecting it.
5. Ribosomes combine proteins after transcription6. Carbs attach to backbone of proteins7. Virus replicates 8. Virus spreads to other parts of the hosts body
The brain then becomes inflamed, spreads to the nerves and replicates in the host's organs.
I become rabid when infected saliva or bite is transmitted into my body days before death.
I'm a raccoon. I'm the most common mammal to be infected with rabies virus. Any mammal can have rabies, but my species have a higher chance of it, due to poor living situations.
Rabies infects the main nervous system of animals, which can cause brain diseases and death. If another animal or human is bitten or scratched by a rabid animal, they would face the same consequences.
