A few people have lived with the "Milwaukee Protocol".
Basically they put you in a coma and keep you on life support for weeks until the virus runs its course.
That's very expensive though so they pretend it doesn't work at all and just let people die.

So yeah, if anyone gets a suspect bite they should get vaccinated asap.
What’s the benefit of the Milwaukee protocol vs just getting the vaccine?
Edit: nvm ignore me. The Milwaukee protocol is for unvaccinated people showing symptoms.
I'd guess timing. From what I understand about rabies you just have to get it if you're bit. Once symptoms develop it's too late. I've never heard about the Milwaukee protocol, but I'd assume it's like a last ditch effort once symptoms develop.
Yeah that’s correct, if you miss the vaccine deadline you can try the MP. But it’ll cost you like $1M.
