that case where the guy got it from a transplant was bizzare. It took a year to kill him.
They don't screen for rabies in transplants.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19815370 I bet they do now  Did not change anything last time. The transplant industry does not care: [ link to archneur.jamanetwork.com] The cornea may serve as diagnostic tissue in rabies infection, with Negri bodies or fluorescing cells found in corneal epithelial cells. A recently published case history of human rabies transmission by corneal transplant focused on this rare route of infection. In the current review of postmortem findings in this case, additional data are presented that were not included in the preliminary report. These further emphasize the need to evaluate carefully all donors selected for corneal transplant. This is from 1982, and it has happened many times since.
