See below: Yes. But vomiting is a sign of almost every infectious disease process i know. If you have any concern about rabies at all, get seen now! time is absolute if you are infected. If you have been exposed to any perceived rabid mammals or have even been in a room with a stray bat. Get seen!

Rabies: Rabies is a preventable viral disease of mammals most often transmitted through the bite of a rabid animal. The vast majority of rabies cases reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) each year occur in wild animals like raccoons, skunks, bats, and foxes. http://www.cdc.gov/rabies/index.html
