rabies
This term describes a lethal viral infection characterized by neurological decay and hydrophobia. In medical contexts, it carries a heavy connotation of inevitability and urgency, as the disease is nearly always fatal once clinical symptoms manifest.
Grammatically, the word ends in s but is an uncountable mass noun. It does not have a plural form and takes a singular verb, despite its appearance. It is never used as a countable entity (e.g., one cannot have two rabies).
When used figuratively, the word evokes a sense of feral, uncontrollable fury. It suggests a loss of rational control and a violent, frantic energy that mirrors the physical agitation seen in infected animals.
