Why don't rabies infected humans act like rabies infected animals - eviltoast

This always puzzled me. Why don’t humans act much more aggressive or crazed like its often depicted with animals. Afaik there’s 2 types of rabies, “dumb” and “furious” so my question is more towards the 2nd type. For example, we never hear of rabies causing a human to accidentally bite another human so why is that?

    Given the Dutch’s colonial history, these aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive statements

      If we’re blaming people for what their ancestors did hundreds of years ago then Imma need to see everyone your great great great great grandparents all ever did

        I’m not blaming the current Dutch government, I’m blaming the old privateering regime. Same way that I can say that the British have blood on their hands for every escalated conflict in the middle-east, that does not mean that I blame the current British administration for it.
