Rabies lyssavirus Characterization of etiologic agent | Life cycle or infectious cycle | Diagnosis | Epidemiology | Symptoms | Mechanism of Pathogenicity/immune response/immune evasion | Treatment | Current status | Opinion of the Future of this disease References Etiologic Agent: The microbial agent that causes the disease must be identified and correctly characterized. Further, the life or infectious cycle of this microbe/ organism should be described thoroughly. This discussion should include the means by which this disease is spread among humans. Diagnosis: How is the disease diagnosed? Briefly describe the test(s) involved and how they work. Symptoms: The symptoms of this disease should be described thoroughly. If there is a significant asymptomatic period, that should be described as well. Epidemiology: Who is most likely to contract this disease? How does the disease affect people of different races, genders, behaviors, ages, geographical locations? Is the disease hospital- or community- acquired, or both? Mechanism of Pathogenicity: Please describe thoroughly HOW this microorganism causes disease in the human host-exactly what does it do to damage the host cells and organs, and how does this ensure its spread? Treatment: Please describe treatments for this disease, including a brief description of the mechanisms of action of the therapeutic agents if the information is available. Current status: Please describe the impact of this disease on the human population currently. You should include statistics that give an idea of the number of cases that are currently occurring. If there has been a drastic change in the occurrence of the disease from past to present, please tell why this might be. The CDC website is a wonderful place to find this type of information (www.cdc.gov). Future of the disease: Here, you are to thoroughly describe your opinion of what effect this disease will have on humans in the future. Please describe why you are predicting the future as you are.
