How come there is still no cure for rabies virus?

Rabies vaccine was first invented as early as around 1885 by Louis Pasteur. I was just wondering why rabies virus has very insignificant medical advancement and is still 100% lethal with no cure.

Basically, rabies destroy things that won’t heal. There is no cure that grows internal tissues back, especially not brain tissue. If you don’t prevent it from happening, it’s already too late. It’s not a matter of “still” ; as far as science went to this day, it’s impossible. We’d have to make a huge leap in stem cells to ever have a chance to cure rabies, IF that’s possible itself. When the mere concept behind the theorical possible source of a theorical cure is itself a theory, you can go with “impossible” for decades.
