    The document provides a schematic diagram of the progression of rabies virus infection in humans. It shows that the virus enters through broken skin or mucous membranes and has an incubation period ranging from 4 days to 2 years. It then progresses through three phases: the invasion phase with flu-like symptoms, the excitement phase with anxiety and fear of water, and the paralytic phase with gradual muscle weakness and paralysis ultimately leading to death if not treated.
