Rabies Encephalitis was the cause of the death of Edger Allen Poe. i believe that has to be reason of Poe's death, because he might had been infected with it and never knew, till the last minute that he died. if Poe had die from Alcohol he would have had a alcohol poison before he died at the hospital. But Poe was prespiring heavily, hallucinating, and shouting imaginary companions.
Poe's cat was also found died but they said that it died form starvation. But at that time they didn't have vaccines for animals that had rabies. They had made vaccines for people, but have not found the virus that caused rabies.
Dr. R. Michael Benitez a cardiologist, a assistant professor of Medicine at the University of Maryland Medical Center, had heard that Poe had been seen at a bar , but was not drunk. Poe had somebodies else's cloths. Poe had never had drunken in his living years. If Poe had drank that night he would be really sick for days. About one forth of the victims of rabies clam to not even remember that they have been bitten by an animal. Poe might have not remember that he had bitten. Then die after the symptoms have appeared a year later, said Dr. Henry Wilde.
But not even the CT's or the MRI's could prove that Edger Poe died from alcohol poison or from Encephalitis Rabies.
