Preferred term

rabies  

Definition(s)

  • Rabies is an infectious viral disease that is generally known as hydrophobia (fear of water). In its early stages, the disease provokes irritability and rage in the affected creatures and this inspires them to bite other creatures, hence, passing the virus on through the animal's saliva. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Rabies]
