Patil instructed the District Health Officer and District Surgeon in the hospitals that they treat the patients carefully and take care of hygiene.
Rabies is a zoonotic infection (a disease that spreads from animals to humans) that can cause a rare but life-threatening infection of the brain and nervous system in humans.
It usually results from a bite, scratch or lick from an infected animal.
The virus is estimated to kill around 59,000 people every year worldwide, most often as a result of a bite from a rabid dog in parts of Africa and Asia.
Providing treatment to the infected person within 10 days of infection is considered an effective way of preventing the ailment from becoming worse.
