When I was little and rabies was just becoming news in our area my mom was talking to someone and said "Rabies is coming" or something like that.
In my 5 or 6 year old imagination that meant that all of the animals that had ever gotten rabies would come through our town like zomies with foaming mouths and red hypnotic-like eyes.
