Humans don’t rely on instincts nearly as much as the typical animals you’d see infected with rabies. It’s pretty rare to hear of someone being injured by a human bite because we’re not made for that, other animals use teeth as a primary weapon.
The rabies virus wasn’t meant to transfer via humans, are just unfortunately affected by it because of similarities in biology
My sister used to regularly bite me when she was angry. In her teens. No she's not mentally disabled. 🤷
Make sure she’s vaccinated!
