How many people were killed by the ten day observation method of being scratched by cats

Scratched by a catDecameron ObservationMore than 100,000 people were killed.

The 10-day observation method is not actually applicable to China, it is still very popular abroad, and generally after being scratched or bitten by cats and dogs, they will use the 10-day observation method to determine whether they will change their rabies.

However, rabies has an incubation period, and it is recommended not to joke about your own statement, being dogs and wild cats.

If you bite a bite, you must get a rabies vaccine as soon as possible.

Many people put off ** because they blindly worship the tenth method of observation, which creates a big security problem! The 10-day observation approach should take into account a variety of factors, such as: whether the exposed area is infected, the type of wound, the severity of the exposure, the clinical presentation of the injured animal and its immune history, the likelihood of isolation and observation of the injured animal, and laboratory diagnosis.

accessibility, etc.; The 10-day observation method is clearly not suitable for the existing environment in the country. In the eyes of a sane person, there are many uncertainties. The 10-day observation method is extremely risky and unreliable.

The 10-day observation method is limited to domestic dogs, or neighbors' dogs, be sure to observe and inject at the same time, if the observed dog does not die within 10 days, or lives longer, then you don't have to worry at all, the next injection can be stopped.

The Decameron method is the wrong way to do it, but if you're not dead or crazy enough to die, it's okay if you don't observe. Within 24 hours is the first period of rabies prevention and control, and the cat does not die within three days, which is as authoritative as Newton's law.

Please do not believe in the Decameron, and pets are also regularly vaccinated, or cats. For example, the animal that bites does not die within 10 days. We can't tell if a dog or cat has saliva on its paws. Ten days after CCTV repeatedly publicized the accident animal.

However, the throat has been tightened recently, and the mouth is tingling, and in the rabies-epidemic area, it is necessary to inject the vaccine first and then observe, and the ten-day observation method is only used to confirm the diagnosis, because the probability of cat scratch infection is close to infinity, and the ten-day observation method is harmful and cannot be used for emergency treatment.

To be exact, the cat is healthy and alive for ten days, once the cat dies within three days. Bites, not by dogs, the actual probability of infection is zero. The decameron observation method can be applied accordingly, and the current situation is considered not to be infected, and it has been verified worldwide for decades, and there is no need for injections only.

It is okay to be scratched by a cat with a ten-day observation method, but the vaccine should be actively used, and if you are scratched by a cat, you should be injected with rabies vaccine within 24 hours, and it is better to do local treatment of the wound in a regular hospital, and it is better to inject tetanus serum, and you should quit smoking, alcohol, and strong tea after using it during the injection vaccination period, avoid fatigue, and do not eat spicy and seafood products.

Cat owners are scratched by cats is commonplace, sometimes they may also be bitten, because most people lack a correct understanding of rabies, after being scratched by cats, they are often more nervous, of course, there is also a big heart. So here comes the question:

If I am scratched by a cat, do I need to be vaccinated against rabies?

The main reason for the confusion about whether to get vaccinated is that most mammals such as cats and dogs can be infected with the rabies virus. Rabies is generally transmitted in animals mainly dogs, which are caused by bites from diseased dogs. According to surveys, rabies is transmitted by cat bites in about 3%, and cases of rabies caused by cat scratches are extremely rare.

What should I do if I am scratched by a cat and feel uneasy? The "Decameron Observation Method" is one of the rabies prevention and control methods recommended by the World Health Organization. If you are bitten by a sick person or a healthy dog or cat, you should get a rabies vaccine as soon as possible.

At the same time, if the biting cat and dog do not die of rabies for 10 days, the bitten person can stop the rabies vaccination. At the same time, it can be judged that the bitten person was not infected with rabies at all.

In principle, as long as the wound is bleeding and damaged, it is still necessary to take a vaccine to prevent it. Just as people are sometimes bitten by animals, the animal does not necessarily suffer from madness, but in principle, it is still necessary to be vaccinated. Rabies vaccination for cats only guarantees that cats will not be infected.

Go get vaccinated, even if you're fine, you can rest assured.

Families with cats and babies at home, in order to avoid this situation, can take the following measures:

Domestic cats are regularly vaccinated against rabies.

Domestic cats are kept in captivity to prevent cats from going out, eating out, etc.

Cut off the cat's overly sharp nails.

In the process of cat protection, child protection, playing, and defense, stay away from the cat.

When cutting cat nails, pay attention to the capillaries before the capillaries.

You'd better get the rabies vaccine as soon as possible, and don't believe too much in the 10-day observation method. Wait ten days, if the cat gets sick, you will be too late to get the rabies vaccine.

If your pet cat bites you or scratches you, and you are vaccinated on time and don't go out often, you really don't have to be too scared, they are not like dogs that do not carry rabies virus.
