This completely broke my heart for these young boys. When it said the little boy kept telling the nurse “hold me hold me” I lost it! What a horrible disease!!!!
One of human kind’s worst natural enemies is disease rabies and tetanus are horrible and fatal diseases which thankfully now can be treated/prevented with vaccines. Rest in peace to all those who where infected so that people today can live 🙏
My wife's good friend died of rabies, one of the few modern cases, and it is so serious that it paralyzes our family whenever there is even a cat scratch so I'm glad that people bring awareness to this.
That poor sweet baby not able to stand still and begging the nurse to hold him. Hope these poor babies are in better place, what a horrifying way to die, they would be around 100 years old if alive.
What a nightmare but literally puts a face to a disease ive only ever read about in my immunology training. Now I understand the passion behind the research doctors who sped the development of a vaccine or antitoxin whatever it was for this horrible disease in the early 20th, late 19th century. God thank these researchers!
Those poor sweet children must have been in absolute agony. I hope their parents were allowed to be with them. 14:20 It seems this little boys mom wasn’t there. He kept asking the nurse to hold him Poor darling 😢😢
I thought I had seen all of the old rabies cases. Somehow I've not seen ONE of these. No comfort for these children, They know they are going to die. Makes me wonder if they are observing them. Where are the parents? Are these orphans? This has to be one of the most insidious ways for a human being (or animal) to die. If they were not merely being observed, You would think they would be given high doses of medication to try to stop the involuntary muscle movements, keep them hydrated due to the hydrophobia, sedate them. Only one child seem to have a toy, And it was a hard wooden toy he was clinging to. poor babies. ❤
poor kids .... They are dying. Terrible. Yes, one would think that they could have given them something anesthetic, so that they would at least not suffer while they wait for this terrible bacteria to kill them...:( And back then, parents only had access to the hospital , and their child when it was visiting time at the hospital... What a terrible trauma, for both children and parents...
When my Father was a child he was in the Hospital with mumps and he said there was a boy across the hall from him with rabies. He said he could hear the bed clanging and the boy screaming for 3 days before he eventually died.
Mumps is a viral infection that is spread through saliva. It causes swelling of the salivary glands, the throat and in some rare cases it can spread to the brain. Many school age children used to get the virus before vaccinations were required in the United States.
Really ...im glad its silent??? I think it would be 2x as bad hearing the screams, vomiting, defecating and other sounds the body makes when violently convolsing mixed with the cries and confusion of a dying child
Seems as though a good bit of the agitation comes from the doctors and nurses expecting dying children who are suffering greatly to sit and stare into a camera the whole time rather than trying to comfort them and allowing them to move as they needed to. I understand that they were trying to document the symptoms but it could have been doe with more kindness.
What were they supposed to do? Agitation, fear, hallucinations, it's all part of the symptoms.. No manner of good behaviour from the staff would change anything. This is.. the nature of the disease.
Because animals aren't capable of higher reasoning, they can't conceptualize their situation. Besides, this is a film made to educate doctors back when rabies was a part of everyday life, especially for kids. It was important to educate med students about its signs so the spread could be stopped. When people are suffering like this, they get comfort care, which often involves enough pain relief not to wake up if that means agony.
What kids are suffering from rabies? Are you serious? This was 1929! Nobody dies from rabies anymore. Not even animals. We have both post and pre exposure cure. Unless you can’t get to a hospital within 2 weeks of exposure and as far as I’m concerned that’s nobody 🙄
Poor things. That must be terrible thing to have to witness or see your child have to go through that and there's nothing that can be done. It's torture for everyone involved I imagine, especially the patient.
When I was 5 yrs old, I bent down to kiss my neighbors dog, he bit me next to my upper lip. The dog had rabies & I had to go for series of shots, I’ll never forget the smell of the hospital. This is awful, poor kids. 😪😭😩
I’m thankful for the work animal control people do. Often they are vilified for it, and seen as the bad guy. Without them, this would still be a common occurrence.
Heartbreaking! I couldn't watch it all. I know these boys were thrashing around, but instead of trying to give them cups of water, why not put the boys in restraints and use IVs to give them hydration? Lesson for all: Get your pets their rabies shots!!!
I think that they were really trying to document the symptoms. And rabies is known to cause fear of water/inability to swallow...and by introducing the cup of water they can thereby document the myriad ways the patient responds.
Those poor babies. Just wondering why the last little boy couldn’t have been sedated a little just to settle him down? His parents must have been distraught 😢
He was the only one that wasn’t given morphine judging by the words at the beginning. His was true almost unmedicated rabies. I can’t imagine seeing my child like this.
This seriously gave me PTSD...this was the worst thing I've ever seen.. devastating! They are with Jesus now..only bit of comfort in this whole thing! God bless
The vaccine used to be given deep into the abdomen, so it was somewhat painful. Now it is no more painful than a flu shot in the arm. It is a series of shots given over increasing periods of time. I have given them as a nurse years ago. My husband and I worked with wildlife for awhile so we got pre-exposure vaccines, which are the same except one less injection. Neither of us thought they hurt at all.
Why do you space wizard believers always insist on obnoxiously putting the words "God" and "Jesus" and "Him" in all caps every time you write these same regurgitated cultish statements? Is it to make you look even more insane? Just...write like a normal person? Not like you have to incessantly and suddenly scream out like a schizophrenic.
those poor babies. one could imagine rabies is quite rare in the west today. just by its own nature it should eventually wipe itself out, right? frightening. i hope they werent in any kind of pain although it seems like the might have been
@@bernardofitzpatrick5403 Please , tell me what you learnt after the view of the video. All symptons seen here are described in medicine books. Besides, who are you?
Rabies, formerly known as hydrophobia. Notice how only one child took a couple sips of water; the other 3 pushed the cup away. It was called hydrophobia , which means fear of water, because its victims would be either unwilling or unable to drink.
This was one of the most disturbing things I have ever watched. Thank goodness it was silent, my heart was breaking enough. I didn’t notice any bite wounds on the children as was stated though. They would have had to have broken the skin to pass on rabies so where were the bite marks. Surely they wouldn’t have healed that quickly?
Yes, the bites were previous enough to have already healed. Also, the viral spread is through saliva and can unfortunately easily enter through the eye, nose, mouth etc. a wound isn’t required for viral entrance.
The bites also may have literally just been a small puncture. That’s all it takes sadly. That’s probably why this little fellow 13:52 wasn’t taken to the hospital right away.
And how would they know if they were dying????? They appear under 10yrs old, who would tell them they were going to die???? Don't make it worse than it already is!
If you noticed, the first child was given mercurochrome. The others got other medications as well as morphine. That was the state of medicine back then.
In those days, there was no cure. Death was inevitable. Even today, unless it is treated within a short time after infection, and sometimes people don’t even know they’ve been exposed until it’s too late, death is still inevitable. A horrible way to die for anyone, let alone children. I am left wondering if parents were even allowed to be there with them. Sadly, because 😢of my own experience as a child many years ago, I would wager that the answer is no.
There was ONE girl from Wisconsin who was bit by a rabid bat. She was trying to rescue it after she found it in a church. She started getting symptomatic, and they were sure she was going to die, but they induced her into a coma so her body could fight it. I think it took 3 weeks, but she did survive. She finished college and I think she has kids now.
@@kimberlymiller8274Yes but that was a modern case. I know exactly which girl you are referring to. She was very fortunate to have had a physician who thought outside of the box and parents who were willing to let him try something that had never been done before ❤
Because this is in the 1920's and they are documenting the effects of Rabies on humans for research purposes? What do you think is happening? It isn't meant to be humane, this is a different time with a different mindset on these things and furthermore not equipped with the same medication and equipment that we have access to today. They were given morphine (not shown on video because it defeats the purpose of showing the horrifying effects and transformation of Rabies infected humans) however morphine is not exactly going to save you from feeling and enduring everything that is happening to you when you are literally being taken over by a bacteria that is stealing your body, your central nervous system and systematically destroying you and reconstructing you into a perfect host for transmission into another host. It kills you even before you die, some patients either go into a comatose state before death or become so delirious or various states of lucidity (similar to Dementia) that they are unaware of what their own bodies are doing, occasionally snapping back into reality but most likely with a lack of understanding or awareness anymore as to where they are, what is happening, etc. Hence the occasional violent outbursts and the necessity for restraints if you have the "furious" strain of Rabies that actively seeks out hosts to transmit to. Without videos like this, as horrifying as they are to the average human, there would be no vaccine preventing rabies if caught early to reach the brain and complete the infection. There is still no cure for rabies when symptoms emerge (at which point, it is fatal and the handful of cases in which a human has actually managed to endure and survive have left them traumatised, a shell of their former selves and left with severe disabilities and disorders.) But without research and without doing what they did, we wouldn't have even developed preventative measures to this disease and this would be far deadlier. Science and medical research is, at times, a place where you need to check your emotions at the door and strive to do what is necessary to combat something that has no emotions or feelings as we do. Diseases such as this are the true horrors of this world and without anyone willing to commit to combatting them and developing cures or preventative measures, we would be facing a world ridden with pandemics and mass deaths. I do imagine that if this were filmed nowadays however they would be treated more humanely, they would most likely be euthanized once reaching the final phases of Rabies and most likely be given more reaffirming care and various painkillers and sedatives to put them more at ease versus what was available back then. This is simply a reflection of the times they lived in.
I don’t think these Videos should be on TH-cam. They are just showing young children dying a horrible death. They do not need to be seen, they are not “educational”.
@@wendyschutze2818 if you are not a medic or a virologist, interested in symptom documentation, I would suggest you don’t watch. Alternatively you may understand the awful things medics are forced to watch, thus inculcating in you and many, a profound respect for their service.
This isn’t about your personal beliefs. If people who want to save lives can’t learn from the past, where do you think we’d be in the USA on this November 16, 2024 when I’m writing this. Oh yeah…nevermind.
Why were they handling the kids like that??? Dang, that was unnecessary and mean. Edited to add: I'm out. This is shitty and I can't believe it legal to do that to them.
What? Those children had a fatal virus to which there was no vaccine. What did you want the medical staff to do? The virus causes hallucinations and panic and it wouldn't have changed anything if the nurses held the children. It would have endangered their lives.
Rabies infection, which causes severe neurological deterioration. The bacilli affects the brain and spinal cord. Unless treatment begins right away, it is 100% FATAL. Louis Pasteur developed successful rabies treatment over 100 years ago. These deaths were completely preventable, which makes this extremely upsetting. If a person is bitten by any animal, the individual should be seen by a doctor the same day, so a history of the incident can be recorded, action taken to protect others (locate the animal and submit it for testing), and treatment of the victim begun immediately. ALL animal bites are Reportable to local Health Authorities - it's the law in the United States. Now you see why it is important for immediate treatment and follow-up.
U think? Look up rabies patients in India where it is rampant. They are locked in a room no windows. If their family want to risk bite they can lock in too. They are given the basics until passing.
I think there were enough uneducated/poor people around to have hundreds to document. Perhaps they hadn’t come up with the vaccines yet. Maybe they did have the vaccine but at that time were charged for it. Look at all the silly people not willing to vaccinate their children nowadays. I bet they do for rabies though lol.
The way they man handle these terrified children is child abuse, your gut should feel what you are seeing and tell you that. One of the boys asked the nurse to hold him. The way they poke at them and pull the blankets from their hands. NOT NECESSARY 😡
The children have a fatal virus that causes hallucinations and anxiety. Nothing the nurses do would change their behaviour and the staff can't risk getting the virus as there were no vaccines yet. @@klutzykate123
@klutzykate123 the reason is a nip or any blood or saliva transmitted is instant rabies for the nurse or drs. It's 1920 b4 any vaccine that was how life was.
Sorry, but some of these kids don’t look like they have rabies. I’m gonna research this video. I think that’s the best thing to always do before. You start writing comments and taking things of face value.
you realize this was posted by the NIH and that rabies is proven in these victims? it's not that hard to diagnose. they kept them alive to study the effects. it's cruel but they have rabies. they are acting exactly the same as adults with rabies who can speak and tell us they have rabies ffs
These videos seem to be more of medical experimentation than that if treatment. I highly doubt any of those kids had confirmed cases of rabies. It was probably said diagnosis because of a dog bite. Those kids look to be tortured, anorexic.
The virus causes hallucinations and severe anxiety. These children absolutely had rabies. I travel to third world countries to vaccinate against the virus and I have seen hundreds of cases in humans.
no, it's rabies. What you're seeing is the middle and late stages of it before death. Convulsions, delirium, a very profound fear of water and sometimes all other stimuli. Before rabies vaccines became available, wards in US hospitals had enough cases each year sadly.
There is no cure if not detected soon enough and I agree the care is absolutely deplorable, but I wonder if this is the point of the films to train and horrifying at the same time. Once the symptoms show there there is very little hope of recovery. But there have been 1 or 2 recovering but such a small number it is not hopeful. I. I live in southern Spain and while it is not common here at all years between cases, on the African continent it is way more common. The problem is that not all who visit these shores are known . Even animals can jump across on boats or by their own means .
This is one of the most horrible things I’ve ever seen. Those poor children. 😣😭
I'm doubtful probably accidental contact
Film for medical professionals may have helped the development of the vaccines. May their souls rest in peace
The medical staff also at risk notice the thick gloves
Is that not the truth! Wow! Absolutely horrible!

They were given morphine (not shown on video because it defeats the purpose of showing the horrifying effects and transformation of Rabies infected humans) however morphine is not exactly going to save you from feeling and enduring everything that is happening to you when you are literally being taken over by a bacteria that is stealing your body, your central nervous system and systematically destroying you and reconstructing you into a perfect host for transmission into another host. It kills you even before you die, some patients either go into a comatose state before death or become so delirious or various states of lucidity (similar to Dementia) that they are unaware of what their own bodies are doing, occasionally snapping back into reality but most likely with a lack of understanding or awareness anymore as to where they are, what is happening, etc.
Hence the occasional violent outbursts and the necessity for restraints if you have the "furious" strain of Rabies that actively seeks out hosts to transmit to.
Without videos like this, as horrifying as they are to the average human, there would be no vaccine preventing rabies if caught early to reach the brain and complete the infection. There is still no cure for rabies when symptoms emerge (at which point, it is fatal and the handful of cases in which a human has actually managed to endure and survive have left them traumatised, a shell of their former selves and left with severe disabilities and disorders.)
But without research and without doing what they did, we wouldn't have even developed preventative measures to this disease and this would be far deadlier.
Science and medical research is, at times, a place where you need to check your emotions at the door and strive to do what is necessary to combat something that has no emotions or feelings as we do. Diseases such as this are the true horrors of this world and without anyone willing to commit to combatting them and developing cures or preventative measures, we would be facing a world ridden with pandemics and mass deaths.
I do imagine that if this were filmed nowadays however they would be treated more humanely, they would most likely be euthanized once reaching the final phases of Rabies and most likely be given more reaffirming care and various painkillers and sedatives to put them more at ease versus what was available back then.
This is simply a reflection of the times they lived in.
Existence
I don’t think these Videos should be on TH-cam. They are just showing young children dying a horrible death. They do not need to be seen, they are not “educational”.
This is how doctors explained diseases other than writing 100 years ago. If you don’t like it do not watch it.
@ You like watching them then? Strange enjoyment.
@ Doctors wrote articles, books and taught on Rounds. These videos were never meant to be “enjoyed” by people like you.
@@wendyschutze2818 if you are not a medic or a virologist, interested in symptom documentation, I would suggest you don’t watch. Alternatively you may understand the awful things medics are forced to watch, thus inculcating in you and many, a profound respect for their service.
This isn’t about your personal beliefs.
If people who want to save lives can’t learn from the past, where do you think we’d be in the USA on this November 16, 2024 when I’m writing this.
Oh yeah…nevermind.
Wow
Tf id be freaking out too if i was being watched and touched like that by strangers while ass naked
That's not why they were " freaked out ". The virus causes hallucinations and panic.
😥😥😥
Why were they handling the kids like that??? Dang, that was unnecessary and mean.
Edited to add: I'm out. This is shitty and I can't believe it legal to do that to them.
They have rabies dummy
What? Those children had a fatal virus to which there was no vaccine. What did you want the medical staff to do? The virus causes hallucinations and panic and it wouldn't have changed anything if the nurses held the children. It would have endangered their lives.
Best video is Lobotomy
Frontal Labotomy? I'd rather have a bottle in front of me...and why do they bother calling it 'frontal'?
IDK

I just hope this child wasn’t infected on purpose.
Which one? There were 4 kids and they were all bitten by rabid dogs.
@@bekahe4433Yes, rabies was prevalent in some locations. It wasn’t hard to find active cases of it in human children.
@tigerjo123 Isn't this video bad enough without making up stories to make it worse?
Comentario sumamente estúpido y paranoico.
I am more scared of how these children became infected....
The writing said they were bit by rabid dogs.
So you’re scared of dogs?
Cause?
It states in the disciption that it was dog bites
Rabies virus
It literally says rabies
Rabies infection, which causes severe neurological deterioration.
The bacilli affects the brain and spinal cord.
Unless treatment begins right away, it is 100% FATAL.
Louis Pasteur developed successful rabies treatment over 100 years ago.
These deaths were completely preventable, which makes this extremely upsetting.
If a person is bitten by any animal, the individual should be seen by a doctor the same day, so a history of the incident can be recorded, action taken to protect others (locate the animal and submit it for testing), and treatment of the victim begun immediately.
ALL animal bites are Reportable to local Health Authorities - it's the law in the United States.
Now you see why it is important for immediate treatment and follow-up.
@@OceanSwimmernot bacilli, it's a virus.
Really primitive care of patients.
They were given sedatives, and the first one was given an anti-parasite remedy.
What did you want the staff to do?
U think? Look up rabies patients in India where it is rampant. They are locked in a room no windows. If their family want to risk bite they can lock in too. They are given the basics until passing.
These children seem to be medically experimented upon given their ages. Bet they were intentionally given the disease.
I think there were enough uneducated/poor people around to have hundreds to document. Perhaps they hadn’t come up with the vaccines yet. Maybe they did have the vaccine but at that time were charged for it.
Look at all the silly people not willing to vaccinate their children nowadays.
I bet they do for rabies though lol.
Also if you read the information they all were bitten by stray dogs.
You are an ıd|ot.
What a ridiculous comment
They were bitten by rapid dogs. Read descriptions d'oh.
Child abuse
What? This is an illness. Rabies. Not child abuse...
The way they man handle these terrified children is child abuse, your gut should feel what you are seeing and tell you that. One of the boys asked the nurse to hold him. The way they poke at them and pull the blankets from their hands. NOT NECESSARY 😡
The children have a fatal virus that causes hallucinations and anxiety. Nothing the nurses do would change their behaviour and the staff can't risk getting the virus as there were no vaccines yet. @@klutzykate123
@klutzykate123 the reason is a nip or any blood or saliva transmitted is instant rabies for the nurse or drs. It's 1920 b4 any vaccine that was how life was.
Sorry, but some of these kids don’t look like they have rabies. I’m gonna research this video. I think that’s the best thing to always do before. You start writing comments and taking things of face value.
you realize this was posted by the NIH and that rabies is proven in these victims? it's not that hard to diagnose. they kept them alive to study the effects. it's cruel but they have rabies. they are acting exactly the same as adults with rabies who can speak and tell us they have rabies ffs
This is very clearly rabies. Educate yourself.
Rabies attacks the brain. One basically goes insane.
Wow you are quite clueless.
Def rabies
These videos seem to be more of medical experimentation than that if treatment. I highly doubt any of those kids had confirmed cases of rabies. It was probably said diagnosis because of a dog bite. Those kids look to be tortured, anorexic.
You utter moron
The virus causes hallucinations and severe anxiety. These children absolutely had rabies. I travel to third world countries to vaccinate against the virus and I have seen hundreds of cases in humans.
Hydrophobia is virtually diagnostic for rabies...too bad that even some doctors today dont recognize it as is rare in developed world
What an utterly stupid thing to say, you have no clue.
This doesn't look like rabies. More like kids with some sort of developmental issues.
no. it's rabies. classic presentation. please keep your ignorance to yourself.
no, it's rabies. What you're seeing is the middle and late stages of it before death. Convulsions, delirium, a very profound fear of water and sometimes all other stimuli. Before rabies vaccines became available, wards in US hospitals had enough cases each year sadly.
This is rabies
It's definitely rabies
It's definitely rabies
This inhumane care, would never be acceptable today...proof that Humanity is definitely evolving. ❤️🩹
There is no cure if not detected soon enough and I agree the care is absolutely deplorable, but I wonder if this is the point of the films to train and horrifying at the same time. Once the symptoms show there there is very little hope of recovery. But there have been 1 or 2 recovering but such a small number it is not hopeful. I. I live in southern Spain and while it is not common here at all years between cases, on the African continent it is way more common. The problem is that not all who visit these shores are known . Even animals can jump across on boats or by their own means .
There are no survivirs. Just study cases, thus survived by induced coma, cold and meds with brain damage.
No, and, at the time, all care was close to inhumane.
انهو مس شيطاني
Ma no, hanno preso la rabbia purtroppo!😢
No, it’s rabies.
No it’s not! It’s a virus
Really? Demons?? It's rabies. Educate yourself and stop blaming superstition for everything.
Who needs all these all those stupid horror flicks, when we have real fortage like this one? 🫣😢
THEY are entertaining, this is not.
Wow
