    The incidence of rabies is particularly low.

    The rabies virus is very virulent, and once the virus enters the human body, it mainly attacks the brain and nervous tissue, and travels along the direction of the human nerves, so the target of the attack spreads to almost all nervous tissues including the cerebellum, spine, kidneys, internal organs, etc., resulting in central nervous system failure, so it is almost impossible to rescue, and the mortality rate is quite high. However, the incidence of rabies is particularly low, and once it occurs, it is almost 100% death.

    But it's not just animals with rabies that have the virus, dogs and cats that appear healthy can also have rabies.

    However, it is still recommended that you get vaccinated.

    It is recommended that you go to the hospital in time to get vaccinated against human rabies.

    Rabies can be contracted in all warm-blooded animals, but susceptibility varies, with mammals being the most susceptible.

    In nature, rabies has been seen in domestic dogs, wild dogs, cats, wolves, foxes, jackals, badgers, pigs, cows, sheep, horses, camels, bears, deer, elephants, hares, squirrels, weasels, and other animals.

    People who are scratched or bitten by canine animals, regardless of whether they bleed or not, as long as the mucous membrane is damaged, should be injected with human rabies vaccine in full, sufficient and standardized manner.

    If it is more than 48 hours after exposure (after being bitten), the dose for the first injection is doubled.

    Rabies is preventable and incurable, zoonotic, and once it occurs, its mortality rate is 100%.

    So far, there have been no reported cases of rabies in the medical community.

    Therefore, it is particularly important to inject human rabies vaccine for prevention.

    Whether a dog has rabies or not is not visible to the naked eye. Happy.

    Let's go for tetanus. Be conscious... Dogs' paws, saliva, etc., are carried, and cats are also carried.

    Looking at the amount of saliva on the paws, it's hard to say. If the amount of saliva is large, it may take more than ten minutes, and if it is small, it may take less than a minute. In short, the rabies virus can only live until the saliva is dried.

    Analyze on a case-by-case basis.

    Healthy dogs' paws do not carry the rabies virus; If the dog has the virus itself and licks its paws often, there is a certain chance that the paws will also have the virus. Dogs are not born with the rabies virus and do not transmit it through their mothers and offspring at birth.

    Many animals have similarities with humans, humans can suffer from viruses, and other animals are no exception, but they are all caused by external factors.
