I believe in your basic moral goodness. I just want to point out that rabies infections are almost 100% fatal to animals with an untrained immune system. And the death is painful.

There are lots of things in this world that can kill you, and you’ll never be inoculated against all of them. 100% death rate does not mean 100% infection rate.
Why wear a seatbelt when there are so many other things that can kill you?
At least we can say that rabies vaccines aren’t a scam. In order to be sold in the United States, they have to be at least 88% effective in challenge trials. Going from nearly zero chance of survival to 88% is a big deal. And rabies vaccines do prevent spread.
