Strong Fight: Anthrax vs Rabies – Who is More Violent?

Who is more ferocious? Buto or giant tiwikrama incarnate of King Krishna or giant tiwikrama incarnate Prabu Puntadewa? In the story of Kresna Duta, by the second mastermind, the figure of Buto or a giant whose physical posture is different head to head, aple to apleequally balanced, horrible the terrible then pitted. Similar to fighting crickets or gangsir. Who wins who loses? Oh yeah, sorry, at the end of this article, the author will tell you who the winner is.

This review will not discuss about the world of Kresna Duta puppets or about crickets, but about the phenomenon of the spread of these two types of disease, namely Rabies and Anthrax. Rabies is spreading in Bali and NTT, while anthrax has started to appear in Gunungkidul, as has been widely reported in the media lately.

Overview of Anthrax VS Rabies Data

The latest data, from January to early July 2023, 4 people died from Rabies attacks in Bali. Quoted from Kompas.com (Source). While the death toll due to anthrax disease in Gunungkidul was 3 people. As reported by Detik.com Sunday 9 July 2023 (Source).

Equally Dangerous

Anthrax and rabies are two serious diseases that affect both humans and animals. Both have characteristics that make them dangerous and can be fatal if not treated quickly and appropriately.

However, when we talk head to head about the battle between Anthrax and Rabies, some basic differences need to be considered. Let’s examine in more depth.

Anthrax Strength

Anthrax is a bacterial infection disease caused by Spesies Bacillus anthracis. This bacterium is usually found in soil and can infect animals, such as cattle, sheep and goats. However, humans can also become infected through direct contact with infected animals or contaminated animal products.

There are three main types of anthrax that can affect humans and animals, namely:

Skin Anthrax (Cutaneous Anthrax): This type of anthrax is most common in humans. It is usually caused by direct exposure to Bacillus anthracis spores through cuts or abrasions on the skin.

Symptoms include the appearance of lesions that turn into ulcers that are itchy and painful. If left untreated, this infection can spread systemically and become more serious.

Inhalational Anthrax: This type of anthrax occurs when a person inhales Bacillus anthracis spores. Inhalation anthrax is rarer but much more serious and potentially fatal.
