    Animals that transmit rabies can be classified into three categories: low, medium, and high risk. Low-risk animals include fish, birds, turtles, etc.; Medium-risk animals include cattle, horses, and humans; High-risk animals mainly include dogs, cats, and bats, and the vast majority of rabies is transmitted by domestic dogs, because most domestic dogs are not vaccinated. It is also important to note that the rabies virus can remain in animal carcasses for 7-10 days and at 4 for three weeks, so contact with rabies-infected animal carcasses can also transmit rabies.

    Rumors about rabies do not have to be less AIDS, and Chinese's fear of rabies is no less than that of other malignant infectious diseases, but most people's understanding of it only stays at the stage of vaccine + bite by Wang Xingren + tetanus. Some people say that there are not so many vicious dogs in the city now, and rabies is not common anymore, indeed, but it needs to be clear that it does not have to be a Wang Xing to spread rabies, nor does it have to be bitten to spread.

    Human mortality due to contact with foxes, raccoons, skunks, jackals, mongooses, and other carnivorous wild hosts is extremely rare. Of course, for rabbits, herbivores, the probability of contracting rabies itself is very low, so the probability of transmission is also very low. According to a national epidemiological survey of human rabies, 91% of the 711 cases observed in areas with high rabies incidence in China were attacked by dogs.

    In addition, birds (e.g. chickens, ducks, geese), reptiles (e.g. lizards, snakes, geckos), fish and insects never get rabies and therefore cannot transmit rabies.

    Dogs and cats are not the only ones who can get rabiesTo be precise, most mammals and even bats can transmit rabies.

    Rabies is an acute infectious disease caused by rabies virus, mainly transmitted to humans by animals infected with rabies virus, most of the clinical phenomena are specific symptoms such as wind phobia, hydrophobia, paralysis, etc., because once rabies occurs, the mortality rate is as high as 100%, causing everyone to stay away from rabies.

    First of all, the World Health Organization has suggested that high-risk animals with rabies include: dogs, cats, foxes, wolves, mongooses, raccoons, skunks, bats, and rodents.

    The rabies virus is the most common in cats and dogs, so why do cats and dogs carry rabies virus, rabies virus is not born in cats and dogs, and the rabies virus in cats and dogs is also because of other ways, such as being scratched by animals with viruses, eating animal carcasses with viruses, etc., so cats and dogs should be vaccinated regularly, and they should not be allowed to eat raw meat, which can effectively avoid cats and dogs being infected with rabies virus. If we are scratched by cats and dogs, we must go to the hospital for rabies injections as soon as possible, so that the rabies virus can be effectively prevented.

    In our country, there are also cases of rabies transmission in domestic animals, such as horses, cattle and pigs. In addition, some non-mammals, such as birds and amphibians, do not carry the rabies virus, such as birds, chickens, fish, turtles and lizards, and do not transmit rabies. Some mammals, like rodents, such as rats, have not been transmitted to rabies.

    However, theoretically, if a person is scratched or bitten by one of these animals, it is also possible to cause rabies infection. In addition, rabbits have not been reported to spread rabies. Therefore, in general, if you are accidentally scratched or bitten by a domestic pet, such as a rabbit, hamster, or lab rat, you do not need to worry about contagion of rabies.

    No, in addition to animals such as cats and dogs that can carry rabies virus, rats, bats, monkeys, wolves, foxes and other animals can also carry rabies virus. Rabies is mainly an infection caused by the bite of a cat or dog, but other animals can also have this possibility, so as long as there is a bite, try to get a rabies vaccine to prevent infection.

    How is rabies prevented?

    Rabies is caused by infection with the rabies virus, and antibody injections are currently a relatively effective preventive measure. That is, if you are bitten or scratched by a mammal, it is recommended to inject the rabies virus vaccine within 24 hours, so that the body can produce antibodies through the vaccine to prevent rabies.

    On the other hand, it can be prevented from the source of infection, that is, it is recommended that the surrounding puppies, kittens and other mammals be regularly vaccinated against rabies, which is to eliminate the disease from the source of infection.

    In addition, we should also pay attention to strengthening nutrition, eat more foods rich in protein and vitamins, milk, eggs, shrimp, fish, fresh vegetables, fruits, etc., by enhancing people's resistance, it is also possible to prevent it.

    Another aspect is to wash immediately with running water for 2 minutes at the time of injury, and wash with soapy water can greatly reduce the rabies virus on the wound surface.

    Early symptoms of rabies infection

    When the rabies virus enters the human body, it first multiplies in local nerves and then gradually spreads to the central nervous system. After the early viral infection, because it multiplies in the nerves, there will be many manifestations of the peripheral nervous system, such as numbness, itching, ant crawling sensation like ants crawling, or neuromuscular beating, which are completely different.

    If the bite is on the head and face, the virus will quickly invade the nervous system after a severe bite, and the patient may have central nervous system manifestations in the early stage, such as excitement, nausea, vomiting, fear, hydrophobia, wind phobia, etc., and then respiratory failure, circulatory failure, and finally death in the late stage.

    You must pay attention to safety when playing with pets, and take corresponding measures immediately once you are scratched, and you can't take chances!

    Theoretically, mammals can transmit rabies, but cats and dogs have a greater chance of transmitting rabies, and rabies vaccination is required to ensure safety if there is suspected rabies exposure!

    According to the rabies prevention and control guidelines, rodents, rabbits, poultry, amphibians, etc. do not have a rabies infection basis, and rabies vaccination is not required for bites and scratches by these animals!

    Hello, licked by a cat if ** is not broken and will not transmit rabies. Rabies has an incubation period, and it is not necessary to spread rabies at the onset of the disease. It can be said that if the cat and dog themselves are not dead, there is generally no big problem.

    Once rabies is initiated, there is no cure, from the beginning of the fever will not be awake, within a week will definitely go to see Marx, rabies is as long as the dog carrying the virus can be transmitted, but the rabies virus itself is fatal to any animal, so if the dog is a carrier, then the dog will also die, although it was the incubation period when biting at that time, but the dog incubation period will not exceed 2 months, so your dog is fine, then don't worry.

    Don't listen to other people's nonsense, rabies is not transmitted from mother to child, and dogs that do not get sick do not have the ability to transmit.

    And dog owners should know about the Decameron Observation Method, right? This is the most scientific way to do it. If your dog still doesn't die after 10 days, it means that it is a healthy and non-toxic dog.

    Also, a dog fever can be canine distemper, a virus that is also a canine killer, but it is not contagious to humans.

    One. There are also various domestic animals and poultry that can also transmit rabies.

    I thought that only dogs could get rabies, but I didn't expect that rabies is only a common name, in addition to dogs, cats, poultry at home, small mammals, these can all get rabies. Therefore, mothers try not to let their babies come into contact with stray dogs, stray cats or other small animals too often, because if these animals have rabies, children are easily infected by these animals when they pet or touch animals. After the child touches the animal, be sure to wash his hands in time, if possible, you can spray alcohol or other disinfectant liquids to clean and sterilize to prevent problems.

    Two. Why do other small animals get rabies?

    If it's a stray dog and a stray cat gets rabies, it's understandable. Why do domestic dogs, cats and other small animals get rabies? In fact, these viruses are not born in animals, for example, if a dog has rabies, it bites another dog, and the dog will be infected, and then the infected dog may also be transmitted to other dogs through other means of contact.

    It's the same with other animals, and through this way of transmission, more and more animals get rabies.

    Three. What is Rabies?

    Should I get a rabies vaccine immediately after being bitten by an animal? This is because rabies is a very serious acute infectious disease. If you are bitten by a rabid animal, you will immediately become infected with the rabies virus, which may attack immediately after entering the body, or there may be an incubation period that will cause the disease at a later time.

    The onset of rabies is manifested by headache, fever, diarrhea, nausea, and even symptoms such as cramps and difficulty breathing. Rabies vaccination can reduce the incidence of rabies, so if you are accidentally bitten or scratched by an animal**, you must get a rabies vaccine in time.

    What other animals can transmit rabies virus besides cats and dogs?

    Most rodents will spread, like rabbits, mice, these have teeth that will bite, the probability of transmission is higher!

    Because after the onset of rabies, the virus will act on the brain, so that the sick animal will have the urge to bite, and then act on the salivary glands and carry it out of the saliva!

    So, most rabies viruses are transmitted through the saliva line!

    High-risk animals: dogs, cats, wild stray carnivorous mammals, such as wolves, foxes, badgers, bats, etc., need to be treated after rabies exposure after being bitten by such animals.

    Low-risk animals: cattle, sheep, horses, pigs and other domestic animals, rabbits (Rabbits) and rodents (rodents);

    Non-risk animals: non-mammals, such as birds, cold-blooded animals, insects, etc.
