AB Rabies  is  a  viral  zoonotic  disease  typically  acquired  through  the  bite  of  an  infected  animal.  Transmission  via  aerosolized  virus  has  been  documented  in  bat-infested  caves  and  in  laboratory  workers.  Human-to-human  transmission  has  only  been  documented  in  transplant  recipients.  Infection  can  be  prevented  by  preexposure  or  postexposure  vaccination.
