    Generally, scratches and bites by cats and dogs need to be vaccinated against rabies, and not all animals scratched must be vaccinated against rabies, but they are still treated.

    Suggestions: It is recommended that after being scratched or bitten by an animal, the wound should be rinsed on the spot, immediately and thoroughly, and the rabies vaccine should be injected within 24 hours. First, squeeze the wound with force to squeeze out all the dirty blood as much as possible, and then immediately rinse the wound with plenty of soapy water or detergent repeatedly and comprehensively, and rinse with water in time, and the scrubbing should last at least 30 minutes.

    After rinsing, it must be disinfected with an alcohol cotton, iodine tincture or quaternary amine salt solution.

    In Asia, rabies caused by dogs accounts for about 98% of all cases, while rabies caused by cats accounts for less than 2%.

    All kinds of domestic animals, poultry and small mammals are susceptible to rabies, and all kinds of wild animals can also be infected, in short, almost all warm-blooded animals, including poultry, can be infected with rabies.

    Seemingly healthy animals have a 5-15% chance of carrying the virus, as long as the bite and scratch are prevented by vaccination.

    No! First of all, only mammals may have rabies, birds, amphibians, fish, insects cannot carry rabies.

    Second, even small rodents such as mammals and hamsters are unlikely to be poisonous.

    Third, if the cat or dog is sure that it has not been bitten by any other animal in the outside world for more than half a year, it can also directly rule out the possibility of poison.

    The next two answerers are wrong!

    1. After being bitten or scratched by an animal, the wound should be rinsed repeatedly with 20% soapy water, and the deep wound needs to be inserted by the doctor with a catheter in the nearest hospital, and the soapy water should be continuously poured and cleaned, and strive to remove the saliva of the animal and squeeze out the dirty blood. Generally, the wound is not bandaged with sutures, antibacterial drugs are used if necessary, and when the wound is deep, it is necessary to seek medical attention in the hospital to use tetanus antitoxin.

    2. Immunize domestic animals, and the society should increase the management of stray animals. Animals suspected of dying due to rabies shall be reported to the relevant departments, and they shall be burned or buried in a deep manner in a timely manner, and it is forbidden to peel or eat them.

    3 Vaccination has a positive value in preventing the onset of the disease, including active immunity and passive immunity. It is clearly instructed that once bitten, rabies vaccine should be given immediately, and vaccination is crucial, and rabies serum is also required in severe cases.
