    1: Not all bats will transmit rabies, and there is no such possibility in our country. Most bats eat only plants and insects, and only a species of vampire bat found in the rainforests of South America spreads through bites and people entering the bat cave, which is dark and damp and has a very high concentration of the virus, which may be transmitted through the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract (but this possibility does not exist in everyday life).

    Of course, the route of transmission to dogs is naturally bites.

    2: But bats are warm-blooded mammals and can also carry the rabies virus. So in the wild, people can't confirm whether the biting bat has been bitten by other wild animals, and it can't be confirmed whether it is poisonous.

    Therefore, to be on the safe side, you should also get a rabies shot if you really can't be sure if you have been bitten by a bat.

    3. The source of rabies transmission is animal foam, as long as you do not have a wound that touches the foam or is foamed into the body by other means, then it is fine.

    Under normal circumstances, bats also belong to one of the common flying mammals, the reason why many people call for trying not to provoke bats is because bats really carry a large number of viruses, according to scientific research, bats usually carry more than 60 kinds of viruses on average, any of these 60 viruses may make people infected and sick, and may affect our life safety,But it doesn't mean that all bats are like this, under normal circumstances, we can be sure that there are germs on the bats, but they are not necessarily fatal, so if you have killed the bat, then after disposing of the bat's corpse, we try to do the following:

    1. Cremate or bury the body

    First of all, although the bat has died, but there are still many germs or viruses on the bat corpse, the best way to deal with the corpse at this time is to cremate or bury it, so that the germs on the bat can be completely eliminated, so as not to affect the normal health of our human beings, but it should be noted that in the process of treatment, we should try to keep a distance, and to prevent fire.

    2. Disinfect at home

    In addition, in the place where the bats come into contact with our home, to carry out reasonable disinfection, in general, only need to use only medical alcohol or 84 disinfectant, of course, I recommend that you use 84 disinfectant, 84 disinfectant, which can usually be bought casually on the market, as long as it is sprayed at home after a certain proportion of water can achieve the effect of disinfection.

    3. Don't touch the places where bats have touched them for the time being

    The last point we need to pay attention to is that in the process of disinfecting the places that the bats have touched, we still do not touch those places for the time being, after all, we are not sure whether the disinfection has been completed, if we directly contact these places, we may be infected by the virus, we have to wait at least 24 hours after spraying the disinfectant before touching these places.

    Yes, bats can carry the rabies virus.

    Bats are the only mammals that can truly fly and will avoid danger by flying when threatened. Some bat species carry the rabies virus, which can be transmitted if bitten or scratched by an infected bat, or stabbed by a sharp object contaminated with its saliva**.

    Therefore, if you have been bitten by a bat or have come into contact with a bat's saliva, it is advisable to wash the wound promptly and get vaccinated against rabies as soon as possible.

    The Florida Department of Health confirmed yesterday (Oct. 31) that a man in Florida died of rabies after being bitten by a bat. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, a series of four doses of the rabies vaccine can protect people after they have been exposed to rabies, but only if they receive their first dose soon after being exposed to rabies. There is an important reason why it is important to get vaccinated as soon as possible after exposure to rabies:

    This virus kills on its own schedule. The incubation period for rabies, or the time it takes for symptoms to appear, depends in part on the part of a person's body that is bitten or exposed to the virus, Dr. Amesh Adalja, an infectious disease expert and senior associate at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, told Field Science in June. (Adalja has nothing to do with Florida cases) Adalja said, [27 devastating infectious diseases].

    Rabies enters the body through a bite and then travels along a long chain of nerve cells to the central nervous system and brain. Hongtan's journey can take anywhere from a few days to a few months, depending on what parts of the person's body are exposed. For example, the incubation period for a bite of the face is shorter than for a bite of the foot.

    Once infected people begin to show symptoms, they do so in a predictable order, often leading to death, Adalja said.

    First, a person will experience many of the typical symptoms of a viral infection, such as fever and headache, Adalja said. Then, when the virus enters the brain, the soft tissues of the brain become visibly inflamed, disrupting normal communication between neurons. This symptom is known as encephalitis and causes the famous personality changes associated with rabies:

    Changes in personality and thinking, agitation, delirium, in some cases, rabies, or fear of water. These severe symptoms tend to appear two weeks after the first symptoms of the headache appear.

    Eventually, all the inflammation and destruction became too severe for the brain to survive, Adalja said. The patient has seizures and goes into a coma. The vast majority of these people died.

    But infected people can often avoid this fate by seeking ** as soon as they are exposed to the virus. If the rabies vaccine is given before symptoms begin, it almost always stops the spread of the virus, Adalja said, adding that it is important to do so in a timely manner if exposed to the rabies virus, the Florida Department of Health said in a statement sent to Life Sciences, adding that it is also important to avoid exposure in the first place. "Avoid direct contact with wildlife," the department said in a statement that if you think you may have been exposed to rabies, including any physical contact with bats, contact your healthcare provider and county health department immediately.

    It is recommended to disinfect the bite site with alcohol first, and then go to the local disease control department to receive a five-shot rabies vaccine.

    As a wild animal, bats carry many types of bacteria, and some species of bats may also carry rabies virus. If you are bitten by them, be sure to seek medical attention and get vaccinated against rabies. It is necessary to be vigilant, and the fatality rate of rabies virus is 100%.

    Clean the wound immediately after the bite

    1. Rinse the wound with a large amount of 15% thick soapy water as soon as possible after being injured, and continue to rinse for no less than 15 minutes. Squeeze the area around the wound with your hand to squeeze the blood out as much as possible.

    2. After rinsing with soapy water, immediately disinfect the wound with iodine or 75% alcohol.

    3. Fully expose the wound to the air and do not bandage it. Because rabies virus is anaerobic and cannot survive oxygen.

    Warm-blooded animals, also known as "homeothermic animals", have a complete body temperature regulation mechanism and can keep their body temperature relatively stable under the condition of environmental temperature changes. Generally speaking, warm-blooded animals can carry rabies virus, and the World Health Organization has suggested that dogs, cats, bats, foxes, wolves, mongooses, raccoons, skunks, etc. are high-risk animals. In our country, rabies is mainly caused by dogs, followed by cats.

    In rabies-endemic areas, rabies vaccination is recommended if you are injured by six animals: dogs, cats, bats, foxes, wolves, and mongooses.
