    1. According to the data, the probability of rabies caused by scratches is that there have been no reports of non-bite illness in the United States for 75 years.

    2. There have been about 10 cases in China in the past 20 years.

    Disease analysis: 1, the incubation period of rabies fluctuates the most, from 6 days, 12 days to 1 year or more than 5 years, generally within 2 weeks to 3 months, 99% within 1 year, 1% in more than 1 year, but in fact, more than 1 and a half years are already very rare, the longest incubation period is 6 years, WHO has actual verification to prove that it is two 6-year medical records, China's so-called very special up to 30 to 40 years without conclusive evidence.

    2. When a person is bitten by a dog or cat, if the biting animal is infected with rabies, and the saliva contains the virus at the time of the bite, which can infect the person, the animal will become ill and even die within 10 days of isolation and observation, which is actually observed by the researcher with 100 dogs and cats artificially infected with rabies virus, and proved in field practice, so if the cat or dog that bites you is still healthy as usual after 10 days, you are not infected.

    Only mammals can be infected with rabies, but very few mammals can transmit rabies, and worldwide, 99% of human rabies is transmitted by dogs, and the remaining 1% are mainly cats.

    It is extremely rare for humans to develop rabies after contact with animal hosts other than dogs and cats, and in China, the only animals that can transmit rabies virus (i.e., storage hosts) are weasel badgers and bats, except for cats and dogs. Wild weasel badgers have caused diseases in humans and animals in Zhejiang and other places, and rabies virus has been isolated in wild weasel badgers in Taiwan. The probability of bats spreading rabies in China is extremely low, and there have been no definite cases of human infection so far (unlike the United States, where there are cases).

    The rabies virus does not arise out of thin air, let alone in the womb, nor does it remain latent in animals for a long time (more than half a year).

    The rabies virus dies quickly in the external environment and does not remain on the animal's body surface for a long time.

    In short, a healthy cat cannot transmit the rabies virus to other animals and humans.

    The World Health Organization (WHO) has consistently recognized and recommended the "Decameron Observation Method" in official documents, and has repeatedly made it clear that it is suitable for China.

    Suspected cats and dogs should be cleaned and disinfected immediately after biting (i.e., exposed), and the biting cats and dogs should be isolated for observation, and if they remain healthy during the 10-day observation period after the exposure, it can be concluded that the cat or dog is not infectious.

    After being scratched or bitten by a cat, ** and the mucosal intact does not need to be treated, once it is broken, post-contact precautions need to be taken according to the level: minor contact needs to treat the wound + vaccination, severe contact needs to treat the wound + vaccination + injection of immunoglobulin.

    The probability of a cat being bitten by a rabid dog is less than the probability of you being in a plane crash.

    Then the probability that the cat scratches you and you get rabies is equal to the probability that you will survive the plane crash.

    Is a cat a feral or a domestic cat? Is the cat still there after scratching you? If it doesn't die in 10 days, you'll be fine.

    If not sure, the probability of rabies from scratches is that there have been no reports of non-bite illness in the United States for 75 years. I've searched the whole network in China, and there have been about 10 cases in the past 20 years. But rabies kills 100%, and it is useless to cry on one's own head in case of one another.

    So I was fully vaccinated 2 months after I was scratched by a cat at school.

    Anyway, look at yourself.

    In addition, it is necessary to be vigilant against cat-scratch disease, there is also an incubation period, but this is a benign disease, rarely kills, and can be cured naturally.

    0%, but there is a possibility of other infections. For example, other toxic elements attached to the nails.

    lz You can just remember one thing. AIDS is also an infectious disease. But not everyone is contagious after kissing. There is a necessary premise for this. That is, the person must have been infected with AIDS. to be able to infect others.

    Same. The cat or dog must already have rabies and have injured you during the onset of the disease. It is possible to be infectious, and animals are only contagious during the onset period.

    So rest assured that there will be no danger. Now the animals in the city eat the same as people and live in the same environment. It's basically been assimilated.

    LZ can go to the local hospital and ask. Several people died of rabies within a year. I guess 1 of them is unusual.
