Well, yes, it's been known to happen, but those cases are a ridiculously small minority, and it's always better to be safe than sorry; if someone who's been infected gets a shot before fever and the bouts of uncontrollable rage set in, the recovery rate is almost 100%.
The way I read it, it was a ridiculously small minority because they rarely get a chance to enact the right protocols early enough, of the people they used this treatment on roughly 50% survived.
But of course the immediate response should be the vaccination .
I was just raising that point because if zombies did exist I'd be curious what would happen if you restrained one just before it turned and administered similar protocols, making sure it did no fatal harm to itself. Of course I'd never do this, because as we know this is how the larger outbreak sometime occurs in movies.
