How to check if you have rabies virus in your body

First of all, if there is rabies virus in the body, it is generally not detectable, unless it is waiting for it to attack, otherwise it is a pathological autopsy, of course, this is not feasible, so it can only be prevented.

Second, the internationally recognized claim that the incubation period of rabies is up to 6 years, 10 years, and decades is over-exaggerated and has not been demonstrated.

Again, according to the World Health Organization, it is only possible to be contagious if it is scratched or bitten by a sick cat. Because the saliva of the sick cat is poisonous, the animal can not survive within ten days of the onset, even if the cat is in the incubation period but there is no poison in the saliva, so it depends on whether the cat that bites you at that time is healthy ten days after the bite, if the cat is healthy, there is no need to worry. Therefore, it is generally better to be injured by a domestic cat, and if it is an animal that cannot be isolated and observed by stray cats, it is best to vaccinate.

But the landlord don't worry too much, the main source of rabies transmission is dogs, the probability of cats is relatively small, my friends around me feed stray cats every day, scratched on the smeared alcohol and do not inject, of course, her approach I don't agree very much, that is, the probability of getting a little sick is really low. So, if you're sure that the cat is alive and healthy for 10 days after it scratches you, then you don't have to worry, you won't get the rabies virus, and you've been separated by five years, and the chances of you getting sick are almost gone. As for the marks on the area where you were injured, it should be a scar, not the virus itself.

Of course, if you can't recall what happened to the cat later, and you are really worried about the impact that it will affect your normal life, then you can get vaccinated, and it is useful to get vaccinated before the onset of the virus.

Personally, I don't think there is a need for vaccination, according to probability, within a week after being bitten, as long as you don't get sick, the probability of getting sick in the future is 1%; After being bitten, he didn't get sick for a year, and the probability of getting sick again in the future is, as for the brother who had a sudden seizure 26 years after being bitten, maybe he was injured by an animal before the attack, and the news did not report it. Otherwise, God must have been in a hurry to find him and temporarily called him away. After 26 years, there are no more than 5 cases in the world...

So you can rest assured.

If the dog bites you for more than 10 days and doesn't die, then even if you are bitten and you don't have any skin, you don't have to worry about getting rabies virus Some people say that healthy dogs are poisonous, yes, healthy dogs are indeed likely to be poisonous, but healthy dogs don't detoxify If the dog bites you within 10 days of being healthy and hasn't died for 10 days, you don't have to worry This is an objective axiom that everyone recognizes, and besides, the news you watch is 26 years, and this probability is equivalent to you being thundered twice a day, which is not representative.

If you do get infected (in fact, you don't have it at all) rabies can't be detected without flare-ups.

Puppies may carry rabies. Although the probability is very small, but the puppy may still carry the rabies virus, carrying does not mean that the dog will be infected with the dog, as long as the dog's own antibody level is sufficient, it will not be infected with rabies, so the vaccination of the vaccine is particularly important, the rabies vaccine can be vaccinated in the local pet hospital or veterinary station, if you want to vaccinate yourself, please do not buy the vaccine from unknown sources, and pay attention to whether the temperature stored during transportation meets the requirements.

No matter how big or small, it is possible to carry the rabies virus.

Normal dogs are not necessarily rabies-free.

Dogs that usually have normal manifestations do not carry the rabies virus, only sick dogs and rabies virus carriers carry the rabies virus. However, rabies can be infected by humans and various animals, and its causative agent is the rabies virus.

A seemingly healthy dog is not necessarily free of the rabies virus, as it takes a certain amount of time from infection with the rabies virus to the onset of the disease.

During this incubation period, the dog may not have particularly obvious abnormal manifestations, but with time and the progression of the disease, some abnormal symptoms will appear, such as the dog begins to be photophobic, unwilling to move, and obvious drooling. This condition indicates that dogs are rabies and contagious.

Therefore, the puppy should complete the rabies vaccine injection in about 3 months, and go out on a leash to prevent infection by other stray dogs.

On the face of it, it is not easy to determine whether a dog has rabies. If you are accidentally bitten by a dog, for the sake of safety, you still have to go to the epidemic prevention station to get a rabies vaccine.

There is no way to observe through appearance, and you need to take the dog to the epidemic prevention station for testing to know whether it has rabies virus.

It is impossible to tell whether the dog has rabies virus, some rabies virus is hidden for decades, and some may have rabies virus in a few days.

There is no way to judge with the naked eye, and it is best to directly vaccinate against rabies, which can be prevented and reassured.

1. What aspects can I know if my dog has rabies?

A dog with rabies must enter the body through a bite wound or mucous membrane to become infected. The route of infection is mainly bites, and scratches are rare. Therefore, pets that have not been bitten or scratched by a sick animal cannot be infected with rabies.

In urban areas where rabies has not occurred for a long time, rabies is generally not transmitted as long as the keeper is responsible for animal management.

Rabies mostly occurs in towns or small towns and urban-rural areas, especially in southern provinces and regions. Canine-borne rabies is mainly caused by bites, which are minor and not bleeding when scratched, or when superficial scratches, iodine can be applied topically. If there is severe abrasion and bleeding, in addition to immediate rinsing, you should go to the hospital for treatment.

Normal dogs do not have rabies virus. In addition to changes in appearance, such as dull hair, dirty, drooling, and some behavioral abnormalities in animals with rabies, such as tamed animals becoming aggressive and clingy becoming alienated from people, are easy to observe. Animals with a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of rabies need to scratch or lick the mucosa before contact.

Do not get a rabies vaccine if you have only stroked a cat with rabies or been exposed to the blood, urine or feces of a sick cat or dog without a wound on the body. To date, there is no evidence that rabies virus comes into contact with contaminants in animal saliva, and there is no evidence that eating contaminated food or water can transmit rabies. The rabies virus cannot be spread through the air, even if the owner has close contact with a rabid or stray dog.

Second, the possibility of rabies in dogs

1.Many cities now require dogs to be vaccinated against rabies, so the chance of getting rabies is reduced.

3.The dog has never been exposed to a suspected rabid dog and has not been bitten by an unknown dog.

4.The dog does not show signs of illness, nor does it behave abnormally, and the bite occurs for a reason, such as pulling hard, teasing, caring for the animal, protecting the child, or being injured.

5.The Centers for Disease Control has informed that there has been no rabies in the area in recent years.

Generally speaking, dogs that meet the above conditions have a low chance of getting sick because the vaccination effect is better and there are fewer bites, which can reduce the chance of getting sick. Therefore, if you find that the dog only has related symptoms, you can go to the hospital for examination first to see if it is caused by other diseases. But if the dog does have rabies, then it must be isolated, and if necessary, the dog owner does not want to watch the dog suffer, and can give it comfort.

Dr. Paw Paw recommends that when you get a dog, it's best to take your dog to get vaccinated regularly, so that the chance of your dog getting sick will be reduced.

To determine whether a dog has rabies virus, it can be judged from its genetics, surface state, personality, etc., which are as follows:

1. Rabies is hereditary in dogs, so you can first see whether its parents are. Dogs in general, there are very few rabies virus, although those who are bitten by dogs have to be vaccinated, but the focus is prevention, dogs carry rabies virus, or relatively rare, only rabies fatality rate of 100%, will be the first to say. And ordinary dogs, as long as they know the basics of its breeding, there is no big problem, because if there is a rabies virus, it will not be used to breed, after all, dog dealers are also fatal.

Second, look at the dog "crazy or not", generally dogs with rabies virus will be more "crazy", and the appearance is "flower tongue". In the case of not knowing the origin of the dog, you can ** the state of the dog, if a dog, a little provoked, it can go crazy for a long time, then this kind of dog may have a problem (except for Erha). Among the pastoral dogs, this kind of more "crazy" dog, most of its appearance is "flower tongue", that is, the tongue has several colors - most of the dogs that are not sung, the tongue is one color, and such dogs, in the agricultural marketing Tong Village, may also steal eggs, serious and even eat chickens.

3. See if the dog's temperament is very irritable. The rabies virus can also cause irritability for dogs, so if it is the kind of dog that you think it is not easy to mess with at first glance, it may have rabies. In addition, this kind of dog is more aggressive to people and animals, so if you are not very confident in yourself, it is not recommended to raise such a dog, especially if there are children around.

Whether a dog has rabies virus or not, not everyone can see, this requires a certain amount of experience, so if you are bitten by a dog, don't save that thousand or hundreds of dollars, it is best to get an injection, and be responsible for yourself and others.

Hello, it is not possible to tell whether the dog has rabies virus, but once infected with rabies virus, the fatality rate is extremely high, and the incubation period of the virus is as long as 10 years, so there will be no symptoms in the early stage. The best time to get vaccinated is within 24 hours of being bitten or scratched. After 24 hours, the vaccine may not work so well.

So don't take chances, get vaccinated in time after being bitten by cats and dogs. Hope mine is helpful to you.

Fear of light and water rabies attacks quickly, and the incubation period may be uncertain.

Dogs that do not have a full moon basically do not carry the rabies virus, and most dogs will die of illness within ten days of being infected with the rabies virus, and if they do not die for more than ten days, it may not be rabies. If the disease occurs suddenly, without any warning, it will not be rabies. When a dog has a rabies attack, it usually salivates profusely, and eventually becomes delirious and begins to attack living creatures.

Rabies is not hereditary, so newborn puppies will not carry the rabies virus. Puppies that are not yet full of months generally carry antibodies from their mothers and will not go out or come into contact with other animals, so puppies that are not full moon will not carry the rabies virus.

Generally speaking, dogs infected with rabies virus will have rabies attacks and death within ten days, so there is a ten-day observation method to determine whether a dog has rabies virus. However, there are very few cases of dogs that do not die for more than 10 days after being infected with the virus, so it is important to get vaccinated against rabies within 24 hours after being bitten by a dog.

A dog that was originally very healthy suddenly becomes like a rabies attack, which is basically not rabies. Rabies is gradual and has a visible process. If the dog does not accept ** but gets better after the onset of the disease, it is basically not infected with rabies.

Dogs with rabies episodes will salivate profusely, and drooling can be seen at the corners of their mouths. And when its tongue sticks out, it is in a state of weakness and drooping. When you see such a dog looking at you, you should be vigilant and stay away, beware of it suddenly attacking you.

When rabies is fully attacked, dogs carrying the virus will begin to become delirious, become extremely aggressive, and even want to bite if they see a living thing. To avoid the spread of rabies virus, try to isolate your dog as soon as it is found to be abnormal.
