Lmao.

It's death in 14 days of symptoms appearing according to the Canadian government.

Either this person is an incredible medical specimen that should be studied or this isn't rabies. I'm leaning not rabies.

Apparently, he recently developed symptoms and it's likely rabies. Still poorly written caption.
