For both people and animals, the typical incubation period for rabies is 1 to 3 months. In rare cases, the incubation period can last from several days to more than a year after exposure to the virus.

After the symptoms of rabies appear, the disease is nearly always fatal. The virus damages the central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord.
