Am I infected with rabies and will I get rabies?

At present, looking at your situation, it is not quite like the prodromal period of rabies, the puppy has passed 17 days, indicating that the puppy is less likely to be infected with rabies, and you have also been vaccinated, so it should not be a big problem. The vaccine you took when you were a child should have no antibodies.

The reason for the symptoms mentioned in the problem may be that you happen to be sick, or it may be a side effect after vaccination under high psychological stress and immunocompromise.

However, if necessary, you can still go to the local infectious disease hospital for treatment.

Don't be suspicious, don't be afraid, it should be fine. Hehe.

Judging from the symptoms you described, it should not be rabies, you can do a good job of symptomatic**, you may not be good at the later injection of vaccines, pay more attention in the future, if there are bites or scratches, inject the vaccine as soon as possible, do not exceed 24 hours, for the ten-day observation method has not been officially recognized in China at present.

Don't worry, rabies isn't that easy to get infected. First of all, you have to determine whether the cat is sick or not, and the sick cat can tell it at a glance. Generally, those who dare to appear in the crowd are relatively normal cats.

Secondly, even a sick cat may not be contagious, and any disease must reach a certain number of viruses, even if the cat's saliva touches your wound, you will not get it because of the insufficient amount! Now everyone is very nervous about rabies, and there is no need for it. In the past, many people were bitten by dogs, and now they are not alive and well without injections.

Put your mind set! You're sure you'll be fine!

Hello! Don't worry too much, you're fine. Psychological effect, it is recommended to relax the mind and not think about it.

Let me tell you that the 10-day observation method is explained by the World Health Organization.

If you don't feel at ease, go to the hospital for a check-up.

I don't think you have rabies.

First of all, understand your mood very well.

The chance of your condition contracting rabies is almost zero. Because rabies survives in water for a very short time, and how long is exact, the medical community in China has not found a report that anyone has done a rabies virus survival test in room temperature water.

However, some people have done experiments that can completely kill the virus in 56 hours for one hour, 60 hours for 10-15 minutes, and 100 for two minutes. But low temperatures are a good condition for the virus to survive.

Therefore, the general medical community believes that the rabies virus loses its activity after 30 minutes to 2 hours in room temperature water.

If you are really not at ease, you can go to the hospital to ask whether the dog wound cleaning pool has been used that day, and how long it has been used since you washed your hands, which is easy to see from the records of the doctor who received the day of the visit.

Of course, if you are really not at ease, you can go to the CDC to get a rabies vaccine, a total of five shots of 0-3-7-14-28 days each, of course, some places have changed to 2-1-1 vaccination.

The 2-1-1" immunization program is currently the least number of shots, requiring only 4 injections, a full course of three weeks, and a total of three visits. The specific procedure is as follows: one dose is given to the deltoid muscle of the left and right upper arms on day 0 after exposure, followed by one dose on day 7 and day 21.

It is more effective for people with short incubation periods, such as severe bites.

It is impossible for the rabies virus to survive in tap water, and it is absolutely impossible for you to be infected with the rabies virus in the situation you encounter.

The rabies virus is transmitted through bites or scratches by cats and dogs that contain the rabies virus, and no other way has been found.

No, rabies virus is transmitted through blood or body fluids.
