Can you get rabies if you are scratched by a kitten who has just opened its eyes?

It must be clear: "If a cat or dog that cannot tell if it has the virus bites you, if within 10 days, the cat or dog does not have a rabies attack and dies, then you have no chance of getting rabies." ”！

First of all, neither natural infection nor laboratory infection has found that dogs or cats have been infected for a long time, and the rabies virus is not congenitally carried by animals or fell from the sky, but must be bitten by a mad animal to have a chance of getting sick.

Secondly, the rabies virus is an acute to fatal virus in both humans and animals. 100% of cats and dogs die within 10 days of the onset of the disease, and cats and dogs can only carry the virus in their saliva during the incubation period and after the onset of the disease!!

Rest assured that such a cat will be fine

And it's been so long, it's past the injection period.

I've been scratched by my cat countless times, and it's still fine

Rest assured

Cats can't stay in that place forever, and we have a bunch of cats in our school who run away on their own not long after they grow up.

Because the vigilance of cats is quite high.

Healthy kittens scratch without vaccination, observe the kitten for 10 days, after 10 days the kitten is safe, you rule out the possibility of rabies.

If you're scared, then get vaccinated, and that's a question of whether you're scared or not, and if you don't care, don't get vaccinated (it's fine), and if you think about it every day, then go for it

In the past week, the injection period has already passed, and it is good to relax in my heart, and generally vaccinated cats are fine.

Cats** go to pull to get vaccinated and useful really.

Recently, **It was reported that a man in Bazhong, Sichuan Province was scratched by a cat while playing with a cat during the Spring Festival**, and there was no macro staring and timely treatment. A few months later, the man developed unresponsiveness and was diagnosed by the hospital as highly likely rabies, and died on September 9.

What happened; Luo Ming, a 65-year-old villager from Liangyong Town, Bazhou District, Bazhong City, was scratched by a cat's paw when he was playing with a cat during the Spring Festival in 2017, and he did not pay attention to it at that time and did not deal with it.

Luo Ming's daughter-in-law Liu Yi told reporters that in June this year, her father-in-law Luo Ming was unresponsive and other phenomena, and then his family sent him to Bazhong Central Hospital for examination, and found cerebral atrophy and cerebral infarction, with trembling limbs and other symptoms. At that time, considering that my father-in-law was in his 60s, it was relatively normal for me to have these diseases.

A few days after being in the hospital, Luo Ming's condition took a turn for the worse and he was no longer able to walk. On August 12, Luo Ming was transferred to Xinqiao Hospital of Chongqing Third Military Medical University. After being transferred to the hospital, Luo Ming fell into a coma, during which he woke up several times and then hidden, and also had symptoms such as fear of water, wind and tongue biting.

MRI and laboratory tests found that Luo Ming's condition may be mad cow disease or rabies.

It is understood that there are more and more cat owners nowadays, but being scratched by a cat is often ignored compared to being bitten by a dog. Disease control experts said that as long as they are injured by warm-blooded animals, they may carry rabies virus, and they should be vaccinated in time regardless of major or minor injuries, and they must not be careless.

After being scratched by a cat, if the skin is broken, the trapped cat will not get rabies if it has been vaccinated against rabies. However, if the cat has not been injected with the rabies vaccine, the rabies virus may infect the subcutaneous nervous tissue through **, and then gradually invade the central nervous system and get rabies.
