I heard about the pufferfish toxins but I could of sworn it was in Guam? I could be mistaken but I for sure have heard about it.

I actually think it was brought up on the series Destination Truth.

I know a few people who were infected with the rabies virus 1 was actually my grandmother and its not as rapid as people make it out to be. They are just fine after getting stuck with a bunch of needles.

But as I said though it is possible for the virus to change in some way just like the common flu changed therefore leaving vaccines almost useless and changing the way the virus reacts to a human.

Ok what I was saying is it replicates for transmission in the throat. Hence why when you get bit by something with it active, you have a good chance of getting it. It makes it difficult to drink anything, which could rapidly make it a dehydration death. & most people with rabies get it fixed before the symptoms occur. Once symptoms occur, that's when damage happens, and when its transmissible. Assuming it could evolve so that drinking water doesn't cause pain, it would need to not replicate via throat and such. Which would make it hardly worthwhile, as it removes bites as an avenue. Chances are, said mutation has happened before, but wasn't able to transmit to continue the spread, therefore died off already.
