Wow 😲😳.. Dana, That is fuckin terrifying! You should definitely start a series on weird and terrifying diseases and viruses! What do you think?
If you get bitten by ANY animal, you should definitely go to the hospital and get a rabies shot if you haven't gotten them.
This is why I’m happy I stay far away from dogs as a black Muslim 👍🏾

People joke, but Michael Scott was right. "Rabies causes fear of water."
Dr Dana doesn't joke
You didn't already know that?
Hence Hydro-phobia.
Rabies does not cause hydrophobia.

@@dkf28its serious, rabies can cause hydrophobia which gives you the sensation you're drowning even with a single drop of water and thats just the end stage
@@dkf28it's serious. If symptoms occur, you are most likely dead since Rabies is 100 percent fatal after symptoms occur.

@@salilphansekar9557Rabies can’t be “cured” but it can be treated with vaccines, even if you have it currently, before it reaches the brain of course.
Once symptoms show it's not nearly fatal, it is 100% fatal
There a few persons that didn't die but i think its 15 in total worldwide until now.
It’s not 100% fatal but it’s very VERY close to that. 99.9999% fatal. 59,000 people die from it every single year and only around 10 people have EVER survived rabies without a vaccine. There is no disease on Earth more deadly than rabies.

Rest In Peace buddy, I'm so sorry to see that you contracted this condition, I had been bitten by a bat in the UK and thankfully a third doctor took me seriously than the first two and I had the 4 anti rabies jabs needed over a period of a few weeks.
😳😳😳 what? How come it isn't mandatory? Not only it's lethal, a rabies patient can infect other humans near them...?
@@ismata3274 , I was really surprised to find that 2 doctors did not take me seriously when I had told them initially, bat bites are miniscule and are so small that within less than half hour there is no sign of being bitten, it was my own fault as I had picked it up in my hand as it was just inside my house front door and had flown down from the open hatch of my attic during some work being done on the next door neighbours roof. It bit my thumb and was clinging to my arm and climbing up, It was a day later that I read that a bat, even in the UK can carry rabies so that when I decided to go to A+E the 2 first doctors told me to leave and not waste their time.
Even i got shots when my village pet dog (Pomeranian) vaccinated bit me
@@salilphansekar9557 Hi, yes, it is very wise to get yourself inoculated just in case, wishing you all the best. Juls 👍
Me too, bitten by a stray puppy I was feeding in the woods. Doctors insisted it WAS a "big deal" and I needed the shots. Still here, 15 years later!
Fact that this poor man even succeeded in putting the water in his mouth speaks of how strong his will was. RIP.
It's not actually a fear of water but a fear associated with swallowing water.
There is no fear at all. (Except when they learn what they have and find out that death is imminent and painful). They just cannot swallow. But I do not know why they call it Hydrophobia it doesn’t make sense.
@@kwhatten yes and the virus will force the brain to instinctively fear the water the moment he realizes what it is so him managing to hold the water bottle to his mouth and actually pour it in is pretty insane.
It's kind of like some people with needles; they aren't afraid of the needles themselves or the pain but just the thought of the needle going into them freaks them out. Except this is 1000x worse.
@kwhatten it's fear of water... hydrophobia not just swallowing water. Google something before you spurt nonsense
@@shawnhenderson1130 no you’re wrong. What they’re saying is specifically Rabies (which is what the video is about) doesn’t really give you hydrophobia. The person isn’t actually afraid of the water itself, but rabies makes swallowing nearly impossible due to spasms it causes in the throat. It’s a fear of swallowing. And that can be anything even soda.
it's really sad😢. so most likely this man is no longer alive.
India money for health care was stolen by people from Britain
Depending on what I see in the video. Looks to be in a place without advanced healthcare so, sadly yes 😔 probably
@@javguy1even with the most advanced healthcare in the world he’s dead.
@@justinn8410 only 14 people have been cured and they were all in perfect health, under 25 and were in 1st world countries and diagnosed with rabies hours after symptoms started, so you basically need perfect situation and 1 in a million luck to survive so that guy is guaranteed fucked
@Meow Alexia bro, did you really just say that on something sad 🤨🤨🤨
People used to call rabies hydrophobia because it appears to cause a fear of water. The reason is that the infection causes intense spasms in the throat when a person tries to swallow. Even the thought of swallowing water can cause spasms, making it appear that the individual is afraid of water. Spasms of the muscles in the throat and larynx occur because rabies affects the area in the brain that controls swallowing, speaking, and breathing.
Rabies is a vaccine-preventable, zoonotic, viral disease affecting the central nervous system. Once clinical symptoms appear, rabies is virtually 100% fatal. In up to 99% of cases, domestic dogs are responsible for rabies virus transmission to humans.
Clinical rabies manifests mainly in two forms, encephalitic (furious - more common) and paralytic (dumb) rabies. However, death is a signature in both types due to a lack of anti-rabies drugs.
There are only 29 reported cases of rabies survivors worldwide to date; the last case was reported in India in 2017 and of the 29 survivors, 23 of them were vaccinated with the rabies vaccine.
Even if you aren’t experiencing any hydrophobia symptoms but you have recently (in the last three months) been bitten or scratched by a warm-blooded animal, such as a dog, a fox, a racoon or a bat, it is still recommended that you visit your nearest hospital or medical centre or your GP as soon as possible, even if the bite or scratch occurred in another country. This is because post-exposure treatment can be extremely effective and prevent rabies from progressing to the stage where hydrophobia develops.
Rabies is diagnosed using a direct fluorescent antibody (DFA) test. The test detects antigens of the rabies virus in your brain tissue.
By the time the rabies virus progresses enough to cause hydrophobia, it is almost always fatal, and treatment is likely to be ineffective. A person or animal who contracts furious rabies will likely die within six days of showing symptoms and within a few days of showing symptoms of hydrophobia.
However, if the infection is treated quickly, ideally on the day of infection, the individual can have a good prognosis. Unfortunately, rabies has an incubation period of one to three months, meaning that by the time someone shows symptoms, the disease may have progressed too far, and treatment will be ineffective.
Very educational thank you.
Whats the latest time from primary infecton/ first being bitten that a vaccine would work?
Thks for info🙏❤
Scary. Thanks for the info. That's why I cringe whenever I see people trying to get close to stray or wild animals😢

Oh poor thing, that man is most likely gone already, RIP brother 😔
Ephesians 6:12 says, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Jesus disrespected every religion, in John 14:6, Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
We are not to be with any other religion. Because if we do, Matthew 6:24 says, No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Don't pray for other religions.. But we are called to pray for one another in James 5:12 says, But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation. Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.

@@DhjjgghjbfIt's still possible to live. They've actually cured a couple of people.
Once you show symptoms it's too late. That's why you always get to hospital straight away if you get scratched or touched by an animal with possible rabies
No, simply touching a rabid animal won't transmit rabies. The virus is primarily transmitted through the saliva of an infected animal, usually through a bite. However, if there's a possibility of exposure to rabies, such as being scratched by a rabid animal, it's still essential to seek medical advice to assess the risk and take necessary precautions.
@@supitseddieyou are both correct.
OP is specifically referring to bats. If you're touched by a bat go get rabies shots IMMEDIATELY.
Bats have TEENY TINY teeth and you will NOT feel a bite. Most bats (over 50%) carry rabies, do not become sick from the infection BUT CAN pass it to other animals.
You will not feel a bat bite. You might see it days later and go, "huh. That looks weird. Wonder what that was?" And now you've got rabies in a month.
So with bats, yes, if you touch it, go get vaccinated.
Still best to be careful and wash up well, drooling, foaming animals tend to fling saliva and humans rarely cover their eyes and mouth.....
unfortunately there is no cure for it.
at my workplace I still give awareness to all my staff and every workmen to be cautious while passing through any dog in street or households.
*just stay away from dogs*
Not only dogs, cats, racoons, goats and bats also carry rabies. Every mammal can carry rabies, including humans.
So rabies is way more deadly than hiv. I thought hiv was the deadliest virus
I CANT BELIEVE RABIES IS ACTUALLY WORSE THAN HIV. I THOUGHT HIV IS THE WORST OF THEM ALL

Its horrifying
No this is late stage of rabies infection
@@indomiepanggang4258he means the pain though….
@@indomiepanggang4258of infection yes, but the painful struggle begins at this stage
I witnessed a child suffered this on the days before she perished. She was scratched by a cat on her face and her parents did nothing about it as they thought the wound healed but after a month symptoms showed. She was afraid of water, air, light and noise and would scream and hallucinate. She was given medicine to induced sleep but she’s sleepless for days and would wail and complained that her body is very hot inside. It was a terrifying and pitiful sight knowing that her parents beside her can do nothing but cry and regret.
Yes, it's awful. It takes one to three months to show symptoms. After being bit by a fox, bat, dog, car, jackal or raccoon, you should seek medical emergency immediately. The treatment for rabies depends on whether or not you've started to show any signs or symptoms of the virus. By the time the rabies virus has progressed to cause hydrophobia (painful and involuntary throat spasms that make it difficult to swallow water as seen above), it is almost always fatal and treatment is likely to be ineffective. A person or animal that contracts rabies will likely die within 6 days of showing symptoms and within a few days of showing symptoms of hydrophobia.
Rabies never comes with just cat scratches she must have been bitten by dog or cat and teeth got penetrated deep inside skin
Rabies virus doesn't locate in nails of the animals but in their salivas cuz virus can't survive without wet or moist place
@abhishek-zd5hn incorrect. Even in very rare cases rabies can transferred without physical contact.

I have never seen this reaction before. Thank you for explaining this condition.
Not me being bit by a dog 3 times on the face but not getting rabies-
That’s why they used to call it “hydrophobia”
One of the symptoms is hydrophobia (even in todays point of view). Yes hydrophobia= fear of water, however it can also mean rejection or a repulsion of water. Think of the hydrophobic knifes the water doesn't stick to said knife it repells. In the case of Rabies the virus itself doesn't like water, hence why it causes extreme pain when you drink, which can lead to a fear of water in the patients due to negative stimulation.
No I am not a doctor, but I worked as a vet tech and yes this was something discussed in my classes as well as my work. I never got the pre vaccination for rabies (it was actually one of my plans prior to my early retirement) but this scenario is something all staff avoids its also why vaccination IS so important and if one gets bit or has any type of bodily fluid transference should get shots.
Sometimes it's just better safe then sorry :/ still it's horribly sad when a patient has to be rabies tested Especially if they don't have it.
Hi
@@houndgirl7365 It's the spasms and pain in the throat that makes the swallowing basicly impossible. There's no fear of water in the disease at all

Rabies is example of an extended phenotype. It makes animals first very affectionate and they lick people and then bite them. EPS like the rabies virus, change the behavior of the host to project itself into the future.
What do you mean by ‘project itself in the future?’
I recently read in a book ( the ballad of songbirds and snakes, the prequel to the hunger games) that a character had rabies and he ended up
Dying but the way it happened was by using the water to steer him out of the way of another tribute.

It has nothing to do with being afraid, it doesn’t make you afraid, it causes muscle spasms
they don’t fear water. it burns their throat everytime they swallow something. hence why there’s foam sometimes
So it's a little similar to soar throat, I once had a flu so bad that I constantly had to spit just to not swallow, it's not a good feeling 😢

rabies does NOT cause you to be LITERALLY "deathly afraid" of water or liquid, like if you're afraid of ghosts or the boogey man. its not a literal fear! once you're infected and symptoms are showing, its an involuntary physiological reaction that the body (throat) has, that makes it physically impossible to swallow liquid or water. when you touch, see, bathe, or try to drink liquid, your throat automatically begins to spasm (in advanced stages, so does the entire body) similar to dry heaving, repetitively, making it impossible to swallow.
hence why animals foam at the mouth, and dehydration is a massive part of the fatality factor of this disease. it also effects the functioning of the organs, as well as the brain (in later stages), giving the impression of aggression and being "crazy".

That's horrible! Poor man 😢 I'm so thankful that we don't have rabies in Australia 🙏
Australia does, however, have other similar viruses, which are found in bats. Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV) is a virus endemic in Australian bats that causes an invariably fatal encephalitis (infection and inflammation of the brain) in bats, humans and other animals. The natural history of ABLV is similar to rabies. There are 2 closely related variants (types) of ABLV:
1. Pteropid-ABLV in flying foxes
2. YBST-ABLV in yellow-bellied sheathtail bats.
Other, unrecognised, variants may also be present in other bat species.
ABLV has been reported only in Australia and is considered to be present in all populations of Australian bats. It is likely that variants of ABLV also occur in bats in South East Asia.
In May 2013, 2 horses were confirmed as being infected with ABLV on a property in South East Queensland. These were the first known cases of ABLV in an animal other than a bat.
There have been 3 human cases of disease due to ABLV. All were fatal.
ABLV is shed in the saliva. Like the rabies virus, it is presumed that ABLV is usually transmitted by bites or contamination of a fresh wound, scratch or mucous membranes with infected saliva.
Infection in people is extremely rare. While there is no effective treatment once a person is clinically ill, prompt action following a bat bite or scratch may prevent clinical disease.
Post-exposure rabies vaccinations and other treatments may be necessary if you have been bitten or scratched by a bat. No person who has received post-exposure prophylaxis (vaccinations) has developed clinical disease.
Avoid contact with live bats (including flying foxes). If you come across a bat alone or an injured, sick or orphaned bat, do not touch it. Only rabies-vaccinated people should handle live bats.

And it's kinda sad that this happened to smaller youtubers and the people who stole the videos, got millions of more views. Which is so beyond effed up. I just want to say I love your videos and happy you are the real thing. (I think🤨)
jk
I never actually knew that the foaming part was caused by the hydrophobia, thats good to know.
Eh, kinda. It's more that both are caused by a physical inability to swallow due to paralysis of muscles in the throat. The foaminess of the saliva is also indeed by dehydration - again, due to inability to swallow.
The throat seizes when liquid spit or water tries to go down and forces it back. It’s the feeling you get when gagging but 100% worse. The brain is screaming at this point. Anxiety and fear is 100 fold and you’ll continue down this path until you pass away. There’s only been 1 case of a female who got rabies didn’t get the shots in time and had it but survived and was a different person. She had to relearn how to walk, read, talk and eat. Her parents told everyone on camera she was a different person and it was not their daughter they raised. She is different by all means, but she survived the infection.
100% fatal if you do not catch it early for the most part.
@@logitimateThe saliva has nothing to do with dehydration. Rabies affects parts of the brain that controls speaking, swallowing, and breathing. It alters the saliva production process and causes painful muscle spasms that discourage swallowing.
The virus thrives in saliva. Swallowing reduces the spread. Therefore, it immediately acts to make its victim produce more saliva and spread that saliva on its surroundings rather than swallowing it.

It’s so weird that stuff like this can exist at all. Like, seriously, how does something like that happen? What’s it’s purpose???
Same
Rabies paralyzes the muscles in the throat, so you can't swallow. If you try to drink water, you start to drown.
The panic reaction at the mere _sight_ of water that sometimes occurs in both humans and lower animals is a result of this combined with (a) the fact that two of the most powerful instincts in virtually all labs mammals are to drink when dehydrated and to avoid drowning and (b) the fact that rabies is an inflammatory infection of the brain (encephalitis), meaning that a rabid animal (past a pretty early stage) is deeply confused and disoriented. So its instincts are simultaneously screaming that it must drink to avoid dying of thirst and that it must _not_ drink to avoid drowning, in a situation where it has no ability to react rationally to even uncomplicated stimuli, let alone such intense, contradictory, and fear-backed impulses.
Alternatively, if you mean "what function does it serve for _the virus_ ," then the most likely answer is that rabies is primarily (although not exclusively) transmitted by virus-laden saliva in bite wounds, so keeping a rabid animal's mouth full of plenty of saliva by preventing it from swallowing increases transmission.
I'm inclined to believe that it's purpose or "instinct" if you will is to spread (aka reproduce) as much as possible. Plants, bugs, and animals seem to have this as their main purpose and one could even argue that the same is true for humans. An example could be trees spreading seeds around, it's the same concept but seeds are replaced with spit/foam and the tree is rabies infecting the salivary glands.
@@zamboslambo5243 right but why does it have to be in such a cruel way? What does it gain?
But why does it make you afraid of swallowing?
It causes extremely painful spasms in the throat, making you fear water
Not exactly a fear, but unable to swallow water because of the spasms in the throat caused by rabies
The fact that most people don't know is that they are not really afraid of water but there neck muscles undergo vigorous contractions and thus causing pains, so the muscles go in spasm
The fact that a doctor doesn't know this.
You said the same thing that the other guy doctor said, word for word. 🤣
Bro literally just saw a video by another doctor (posted 2 months before this video) that had the exact same script, background video, wording, etc.
Yeah, it's called, she most likely has different followers so she's "spreading the word". DURRR. 🥴 On top of that, she's a doctor not a "bro" nor is she "your bro". You sound like a child. Why don't you grow the f-ck up and stop calling people that?! That word is corny as f-ck used by your dumba$$ generation. 🙄
It's almost 100% fatal when symptoms start to show if you rush to your hospital they can cure you
Once the symptoms of rabies begin to appear in a person who has been exposed to the virus, the infection is almost always fatal, with death occurring as few as four days later.
Can anyone explain why they can't swallow, or are afraid of it? That's such a unique symptom that I've never heard of anywhere else. I'm thinking it happens so the victim is constantly drooling and rabies spreads through saliva.
all i can say is everything evolves the way it does for a reason, so for whatever reason being afraid of water (hydrophobia) works best for rabies to survive
Rabies spreads through saliva. Drinking water would limit the spread.
It's because the diseases causes throat spasms and makes it nearly impossible to swallow.
Some victims of rabies are also afraid of lights and some of air. I have witnessed these when I was working in the hospital. The reason why all our cats and dogs are complete with all their shots. Also, careful with rats. They're main sources of the virus. In the case of the man in this video, it looks like his from India and India has plenty of rats around!

I was wondering the same thing
That only prevents dehydration ... it doesn't do anything more, as, once the major symptoms appear, they're then in the active stages of dying.
All you can do, from a clinical standpoint, is to provide a combination of sedation, and pain relief, so their inevitable death is not one of excruciating agony ...

No because rabies avoids the immune system and has the ability to hide from antiviral drugs, even using the blood brain barrier to protect itself once it enters the brain.
there is if you catch it fast enough before symptoms show… but once symptoms show then thats it youre done
Sad fact:Rabies kills people
It kills every animal.
They aren’t afraid to swallow, they simply cannot.
Wow I never knew this, thanks for sharing. Sorry you had to go through that brother
That’s why I only drink beer
Bro was shocked how clean the water was
I hope you don't get Rabies.
@@ashwatthama438 womp womp $tFu bruh ik what u mean by that N!qqa
Are u sacred to say nigga?
It was spasms
stop making jokes he literally died
Can you apply an IV even if you have to strap the pacient to the bed?
he isn't scared of IVs
@@anniebe4992 yes, but patients with rabies tend to move a lot, do to pain and loss of control over the nervious system.
Wouldn't you think that they would have a cure for it in this day and age. Maybe one day someone will have the balls to tackle this horrible disease. What a horrendous way to die. People should be heavily sedated to reduce the painful part of the death process.
The foaming is actually one of the end stages of the disease. Rabies proliferates and is found primarily in the saliva of the infected. The foaming is an extreme increase in the amount of the virus which is used as a last ditch effort to infect anyone before the host dies. But yes, the hydrophobia and throat spasms are real as well.
When you ask for a Carlsberg but your buddy passes you a Bud Light.
Horrible Rabbies...
RIP Man🥺
My husband when he was a young boy was sprayed in the face by a skunk with rabies. He was emediatly taken to hospital and started on a series of very painful shots. Thank god he survived.
The "fear" is extremely painful esophagus spasms. They are not afraid. Seeing food and water makes them desperate to eat and drink, but the disease will not allow it.
PPE would be mandatory as his saliva and bodily fluids can spread it to any healthcare workers, family, or friends.
We've been isolated from this disease for the most part but people still need to know what this disease is all about. Many people think that there's a cure for it and don't take it seriously.
Hey u got a phobia?
“Water”
Yeah but rabies makes you scared of water. Shit's terrifying.
SO SORRY for this man. .😢😢😢God protect him. I hope he survived. I'm terrified of rabies,and seeing videos like this. It's a horrific condition.
It’s not the FEAR of water. The disease causes INTENSE SPASMS in the throat when the victim TRIES to swallow, or even THINKS about swallowing. One person has ever survived rabies, Jeanna Giese, with special treatments.
It's not being afraid or water, they're painful spasms triggered when you're trying to swallow.
I understand it's not exactly fear but the fact you just cannot swallow. It also causes that light hurts your eyes. Animals can produce foam when their throat is very swollen for ailments other than rabies.
I hope he gets well, that's no joke 🙏
Sonic the hedgehog watching this vid:
Them sudden rain will definitely be horrifying. Stay health and be well everyone.
Rabies causes swallowing to be extremely painful. It's the diseases way of making sure it doesn't get washed out of the mouth. You're able to absorb rabies through your mouth, not just your bloodstream.
It doesn't make you afraid of water. It causes your esophageal muscles to spasm, which makes swallowing anything (not just water) very hard
It's not fear of water but intense spasms in the throat when trying to swallow.
Give the dude a beer then
This is actually heartbreaking. We in the states complain about a lot but if we get but byvaxwild animal the hospital will treat you for ravis if they cannot trap and test the animal just to make sure we don't die from rabies. In India many citizens cannot afford treatment. I cannot imagine how painful it can be. It makes the brain swell up and hurts incredibly badly. This is why animals bite. They are scared and in pain.
This guy's brave considering that even 1 drop of water would make your throat spasm so much you feel like drowning.
it’s so depressing that he can just only be on iv until he dies
We need to find a cure to rabies and cancer
@@david4.6_66 the cure is already found, you know how much Westerners love a dog right? They would kill theirs child for the dogs, and they really working hard to create and make it for past century, and the cure is the rabies vaccine itself, but rabies is moving virus, they move in your blood vessel, so the moment it up to the brains, you can't do anything cause those vaccines can't enter the brains, except if you want to thrust your brains with the syringe, It possible to kill the rabies virus and yourself.
Oh well i just stick to my tea then 😂😂😂
My ex was not only afraid of water but also exercise
Dimentia at times will make you afraid of water. Happened to my great grandma before she passed, terrified of drinking water, showers, etc.
Once the symptoms show up, you know it's over
Hydrophobia doesn’t exactly pertain to a fear of water in this case but just an inability to swallow it because a patient’s throat will spasm
I can't even imagine that that is crazy
Guys type "What rabies looks like" you will get to know the cuteness of mama dogy
Please explain, seriously, wth is that supposed to mean???
@@_jms430 RUclips is crazy there is someone I watch their vlogs, in her vlogs she always shows her street dogs she call one of them mama dogy so it is really irritating to watch at the end this is what those dogs do so I did this comment on her video and I don't know what it is doing here under this video lol
Copied the homework and never tried to change any answers.
Wow,i can only imagine the pain that man went through 😢
I pray he can beat the odds, he will recovered fully, I believe in miracle🙏
It's not that they're afraid of water. Its that to protect itself insure that its passed off rabies makes it where you cant drink. It makes your throat contract and I hear its painful.
Im so sorry sir.
That’s because the infection causes intense spasms in the throat when they trying to swallow or even when they think about swallowing.
I drink twelve bottles of water
Joke? Here is Sprite.They drink just water😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
