Which among the following is not a feature of furious rabies?
Furious Rabies generally manifests as headache, fever, irritability, restlessness and anxiety. It is associated with dilated pupils, lacrimation, salivation and perspiration. Muscle pains, salivation and vomitting may follow. A few days following exposure the patient may experience a stage of excitement or muscle spasms initiated from the ingestion of of saliva or water. As a result these individuals have a tendency to drool and begin to fear water or hydrophobia. This excited phase continues for a few days until the patient lapses into a coma and dies.

Death eventually results from respiratory arrest. This form of the virus is often difficult to diagnose from a clinical perspective.
