A seven-year old girl who had probably been bitten by a dog some months ago died of rabies; there was no information about whether she had gotten any rabies shots. According to officials, by the time she was brought to the hospital, "She'd entered the stage when the virus attacks the brain. The common symptoms of this stage include aversion to water and light.
There are three other patients in the hospital with rabies who had been bitten by rabid animals and had gotten some post-exposure rabies shots but had not followed through the whole course. They entered the hospital complaining of numbness in the limbs, one early rabies symptom.
