PEOPLE UNDULY EXCITED OVER
"MAD DOG" SCARES; RABIES IS
EASILY TREATED SAYS PHYSICIAN
"The people do not understand rab-
ies or hydrophobia and are frighten-
ed worse than they are hurt" said a
BrowawDod physician this morning
in discussing the recurrence of "mad
dog" scares which are noted In every
community from time to time. As ox-
plained by this physician rabies is
not nearly as fatal to the human be-
ing 88 is generally supposed if proper
treatment is given and the percentage
of so-called mad dogs among the hun-
dreds classed as such is very low.
A dog which is really suffering from
rabies can not live more than nine
days or two weeks nine days fieing
the usual period. A human bitten by a
mad dog does not begin to suffer from
rabies for a period of from six weeks
to three months except when bitten
about the face or head. The germ of
the infection travels through the
nervesio the brain hence the differ
ence in time required for the infec-
tion to manifest itself in the human
body. JAbout twenty per cent of the
persons bitten by dogs which are act
ually made become infected with the
disease due to various conditions such
as tue ciotnmg wnich in a measure
removes the rabies germs from the
teeth of the dog when it bites. The
cause of the disease is not known.
The treatment i s comparatively
simple consisting of simple injections
of a virus which is developed through
a series of operations in which rab
bits are used as agencies 'through'
which the virus may be greatly
strengthened. These injections can be
given by any local physician so that
it is not necessary to go to Austin for
treatment at the Pasteur Institute.
It Is explained that tne various
Pasteur Institutes pronounce a large
number of cases as positive rabies be
cause they do not wish to take a
chance in any case In which; rallies
is suspected. This is particularly true
in cases in which the heads of dogs
are sent in for examination. When
however the live dog Is sent to the
Pasteur Institute he can be observed
carefully and an accurate diagnosis
can he given. In such cases the dog is
simply held under observation for a
peTiod of two weeks and if during
that time lie does not develop rabies
and die from the disease a negative
diagnosis is made.
The best thing to do in case of a bite
from any dog whether he be -suspected
of rabies or not according to the
local physician Is to go immediately
(toa doctor and have the wound cau-
f teriz&d or otherwise infected. If the
dog ias rabies this kills the infection.
and it also prevents other infection
from the teeth of the dog. Immediate
attention should "be given to the bites
of all manner of animals due to the
fact! that their teeth may carry other
disease germs than those of rabies.
In. the case of dogs which sire vic-
ious or so ferocious that they are
menacing it .is well to kill the animal
without delay. In the case of fine dogs.
such as bird dogs bull dogs and sim
ilarl fine animals which are suspect
ed of rabies it is perfectly safe to con
fine the animal and observe him lor ai
few1 days so that his cause may be!

It is impossible for a dog to com-
municate rabies to another animal
merely because he bites when he is
angered. To communicate rabips he
must be suffering" from the disease
himself. When so suffering a .dog is
ordinarily but little more vicious than
whfcn normal and will not go. out of
his way to bite a person or another
dog.
