1885, the first rabies vaccination in humans

The first human vaccination with a rabies virus attenuated by exposure to dry air started on July 6, 1885, and was reported in the session of the French Academy of Sciences on October 26, 1885 (1). In his report, Louis Pasteur describes how experiments started in 1882 led him to a rapid prophylactic method that had been successful many times in dogs. Pasteur was confident that it could be generally applied to all animals and also to man.
