Is rabies easy? Is rabies scary? Is it harmful?

This is mainly caused by psychological reasons. In fact, being bitten by a dog is not as easy to get rabies as you think.

Target. If this were the case, we would have no one in China long ago. I'll give you a trick to verify if you have rabies.

You only have to look at the animal that bites you or catches youIn a week. It depends on whether there is a medical condition or not.

Ten days, if it's okay, it's okay. If it's dead. You could be infected.

But it's only possible. It's being bitten by a sick animal. The disease rate is also less than 50 percent

You can rest assured!!

It's not that easy to get, it's a very uncommon disease, but prevention is still necessary, but don't worry as long as the dog is not a mad dog.

The incubation period of rabies is generally 1-3 months. The time is short, it can appear in about 5 days to 1 week; The time is long, rarely more than 1 year. According to authoritative data, the longest incubation period in the world, only one case is 6 years.

The incubation period of rabies is related to the bite site, if the bite site is close to the central nervous system and brain, the shorter the onset time, the shorter the incubation period. If an infant or child is bitten by a dog, the incubation period is very short. It is believed that when the rabies virus enters the body, it will move closer to the central nervous system at a rate of 3 mm per day, and after reaching the central nervous system, it will go up to the medulla oblongata and brainstem.

Therefore, the specific incubation period has a lot to do with the bite site.

It's all psychological factors that are at work, and you will never get rabies. All right.

Rabies, also known as hydrophobia, is a naturally pathogenic zoonotic acute infectious disease caused by the rabies virus. The epidemic is widespread, and the case fatality rate is extremely high, almost 100%. It poses a serious threat to people's lives and health.

Human rabies is usually contracted by the bite of a sick animal. The clinical manifestations are characteristic hydrophobia, phobia, phobia, wind, phobia, pharyngeal spasm, progressive paralysis, etc.

Incubation period: The length of the incubation period varies, the shortest is 3 days, the longest is 19 years, and the average is about 20-90 days.

Since the mortality rate of the disease is almost 100%, it poses a great threat to human life, so it is essential to actively and effectively manage wounds and prevent vaccination.

Ways to prevent it. A dog bite does not necessarily get rabies, and if the dog that bites a person does not carry the rabies virus, it will not get rabies even if the wound is not treated. Some scholars have found that they are bitten by real rabies or other mad animals, and no preventive measures are taken, and only 15%-30% of people get sick.

The main source of rabies infection in China is sick dogs, and some seemingly healthy dogs can carry the virus in their saliva, and the virus carrying rate can reach and can also spread rabies. There is currently no way to detect whether a dog has the virus, so if you are bitten or scratched by a pet such as a dog or cat, you should wash the wound immediately.

Tie a tourniquet at the proximal end of the bite site, squeeze out the blood from the wound, promote the flow of virus-containing blood, and thoroughly rinse the wound with a large amount of soapy water, salt water or water for more than half an hour, and then rinse the wound with iodine and alcohol.

At the same time, dogs and cats should be isolated and observed for 14 days to clarify whether they are rabies or cats, and if necessary, they can be sent to the epidemic prevention station for inspection. After the wound is treated, it is best not to go to the health and epidemic prevention station in time to inject rabies vaccine for more than 24 hours, if the dog or cat cannot be traced, the whole course of vaccination should be carried out to the end. In addition, children who have been in close contact with rabies should be vaccinated against rabies, even if there are no obvious bites or scratches.

First aid measures. 1.After being bitten by a sick dog, the wound should be rinsed immediately, and the key is the method of washing.

When the wound is small, superficial, and there is no major active bleeding, you can rinse the wound directly with tap water or soapy water for at least 30 minutes, try to wash off the virus that may enter the wound, and cover the wound with clean gauze after rinsing. For severe bites, you should go to the hospital immediately.

2.After being bitten by a rabid dog, even the smallest wound may be infected with rabies, and at the same time, it can be infected with tetanus, and the wound is easy to suppurate. Patients should be vaccinated against rabies and/or tetanus antitoxin as required.

3.Rabies can be prevented and morbidity can be prevented by timely and correct wound treatment and timely and full vaccination. Note 1

Being bitten by a sick dog is very dangerous, and there are often people who die of tetanus after being bitten or after being bitten by a dog owner. 2.Warm-blooded animals, including humans, have various bacteria and viruses on their teeth, and dog bites have deep and complex shapes, which are just right for bacteria to multiply, which is also the reason for the occurrence of diseases such as tetanus.

It's not terrible, because the probability of getting rabies is about the same as the probability of buying a lottery ticket. But rabies is very harmful, because it is not only 100% dead, but also that many of us are afraid of rabies, so it is very harmful! I won't explain what I said on the Internet, don't believe too much what Du Niang said above, if you really don't feel at ease, go to the hospital to check and get it is really reassuring, just looking here has no effect!
