A treatment known as the Milwaukee protocol, which involves putting a person into a chemically induced coma and using antiviral medications, has been proposed but subsequently found not to be useful.[96] It initially came into use in 2003, following Jeanna Giese, a teenage girl from Wisconsin, becoming the first person known to have survived rabies without preventive treatments before symptom onset.[97][98] While this treatment has been tried multiple times since, there have been no further cases of survival.[96] The protocol has since been assessed as an ineffective treatment with concerns related to the costs and ethics of its use
