Just saw a video about rabies having 100% kill rate, peaked my interest.
Why is rabies such a horrible thing and what does it actually do to be able to kill you without an actual cure etc?
EDIT: I didn’t expect so many responses to this, thank you to everyone who answered!

Imagine this virus sneaking into your body, usually through an animal bite. Once it’s in, it’s on a mission to mess things up big time.
It heads straight for your brrain, the boss of your body. And here’s where the trouble begins. It starts confusing your brain, like giving it mixed up signals. Imagine your brain trying to do its job but getting all jumbled.
This confusion is what makes rabies deadly. You start feeling sick, tired, and sometimes even furious or scared. Your behavior might go bonkers you could act like a whole different person or animal.
As this sneaky virus keeps wreking havoc, your body goes haywire too. Muscles get all twitchy, swallowing becomes a challenge it’s a mess. That’s why some with rabies folks drool or struggle to drink.
Once the virus reaches this stage, it’s usually game over. Your body and brain go into a omega sick mode, and unfortunately, many people and animals don’t make it out alive.
