Start writing here… Rabies is a HIGHLY communicable Disease. It is transferred from host to host by coming into contact with either brain/nervous system fluid or saliva. Any mammal is able to get this virus. If you are ever infected by a carrier of it you should wash the wound out with soap and water immediately and seek medical attention.

    The rabies virus is a type of virus that would die out immediately in isolation. The virus has to have a host to survive and reproduce. The virus first “colonizes the salivary glands of its host, making it difficult to swallow” (Survival of the Sickest, paperback, p.104) Next, the virus makes its way into the host’s brain where it “chemically induces the animal to feel higher and higher levels of agitation and aggression” (Survival of the Sickest, paperback, p.104). With a mouth full of rabies-filled saliva, every bite is infectious.…

    First, the reason we should publicly fund the embryonic research is because we would be able to have a regulated research to prevent the worst. In a Vanderbilt article “Funding the Future: Embryonic Stem Cell Research” it says “the opportunity to clearly define regulations for ethical research”(Stan/2017/Vanderbilt/“Funding the Future: Embryonic Stem Cell Research”). This quote proves that the research can lead to health benefits. In an NPR article “Stem Cell Research: An NPR Special Report” it says “private sector research may lead to ethical abuses”(Arti K. RaI/2017/NPR/“Stem Cell Research: An NPR Special Report”). Shows that publicly funding it can prevent ethical abuses and the research can be regulated under the government’s watch.…

    For my speech over foster care, I expected people to know what foster care was, but not to know very much about it. I had twelve people fill out the audience analysis surveys, so the results are not completely accurate about the entire audience. I had two open ended questions, because I wanted to know the audience thoughts and definition on foster care. I asked the audience to describe what foster care was in their own words. Almost all the answers were mostly correct.…

    Immunizations work through introduction of the dead disease to the body by injecting that same disease in a dead form, as a result, the immune systems fighting response is built up (Daempfle, 2014). This is how Pasteur created the rabies immunization; he took ground up spinal cords from dead diseased dogs and injected them in to dogs with this disease, thus curing them. He did the same with the boy in the story and over time and days of injections, he as well was cured. Today the rabies vaccine is made from the killed virus as well and you can be vaccinated prior to being exposed to the disease (“Rabies”, n.d.).…
