EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a chilling glimpse into the world of acute rabies in the wandering stage, dating back to 1896. The image depicts a rabid dog in a state of distress, with its mouth foaming and eyes filled with an unsettling intensity. The animal appears unwell and disoriented, embodying the terrifying symptoms of this deadly disease. Rabies is a viral infection that affects the nervous system of mammals, including humans. In its acute stage, it can lead to aggressive behavior, confusion, and ultimately death if left untreated. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by this illness and the importance of prevention measures such as vaccination. The historical significance of this image adds another layer of intrigue, offering a glimpse into medical knowledge and practices from over a century ago. It serves as a valuable record of how diseases like rabies were understood and documented in the past. Overall, this print is not only visually striking but also serves as an important educational tool about the dangers of rabies and the impact it can have on both animals and humans. It stands as a testament to our ongoing efforts to combat infectious diseases and protect public health.
