    If you were bitten a year ago, there's no need to worry too much. And it's not contagious from person to person.

    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% of the onset within 1 year, 1% of the onset of more than 1 year, but in fact, more than 1 and a half years are already very rare, and the longest incubation period is 6 years.

    Right! Whether it is a cat, a dog or a human, the incubation period is not infectious, and only the onset period is infectiousFrom infectious to dead or near-dying, up to 10 days.

    A brief explanation of the principle:

    Rabies virus is a neurotropic virus, which is significantly different from HIV, hepatitis B virus, etc.

    Whether cats, dogs, or people, after being bitten by other mad animals and infected with rabies virus, the virus will first make a small amount of reproduction in local muscle cells, and then infect neurons, gradually ascending along the peripheral nervous systemDuring this period, the virus is only in the nervous tissue, does not enter the blood circulation, and does not enter other body fluids, so it is not infectious. This stage is called the incubation periodThe incubation period of rabies virus in cats and dogs is usually several weeks, and the limit does not exceed half a year.

    It is only when the virus enters the central nervous system that it begins to multiply in large numbers, and the multiplied virus enters the salivary glands from the brain, and it is contagiousAnd this late spinal encephalomyelitis attack in animalsFrom the point of being infectious, there will inevitably be various abnormalities that can be felt by the owner such as appetite and lack of energy, and within 5-7 days, there will be a variety of obvious abnormalities that can be seen by outsiders at a glanceInevitable death or near-death within 10 days.

    Is <> rabies contagious? How long is the incubation period for rabies?

    1.The incubation period for rabies is usually 1-3 months. The incubation period is mostly non-infectious, and only the last 3 days may be contagious.

    If a dog or cat is bitten during the incubation period, it should be observed for at least 10 days, even if it looks normal. If the animal is still healthy 10 days after being bitten or scratched, it can be considered not 3 days after the incubation period and there is no risk of infection. This is how the 10-day observation method works.

    The period between initial infection with the rabies virus and the onset of rabies prodromal symptoms is called the rabies incubation period. The incubation period is related to the immune function of the host, the number of invading viruses, the number of wounds, the severity of the wounds, and the distance of the site of contact from the central nervous system. Prompt immunization early in the incubation period significantly reduces morbidity.

    2.During the incubation period, infected people are asymptomatic and not contagious. There is currently no reliable diagnostic method for this period.

    Therefore, immediate post-exposure** is the only effective preventive measure after high-risk exposure. The first symptoms of rabies are fever, often pain at the wound site, or an unexplained tingling, tingling, or burning sensation. As the virus spreads through the central nervous system, patients develop the typical clinical signs of rabies, i.e., mania and paralysis, and eventually die of pharyngeal spasms and asphyxia, or respiratory and circulatory failure.

    Rabies, also known as hydrophobia, gets its name from the fact that the patient shows a great fear of water at the time of its onset. Rabies is an infectious disease that is transmitted from animals to humans and is contagious. Rabies is transmitted through the mucous membranes and mucous membranes.

    3.Generally speaking, the incubation period of rabies is about 60 days, some patients can be incubated for more than half a year, and a few patients can be incubated for several years, so how long the incubation period of rabies virus is actually related to personal physical fitness. The course of rabies virus is generally less than 6 days, and few patients exceed 10 days.

    Moreover, once the rabies virus breaks out, there is no cure, and the mortality rate is almost 100%. Rabies causes death by destroying the body's central nervous system. Rabies is caused by a person being bitten or scratched by a sick animal, such as a sick dog or cat.

    If you are accidentally bitten by an animal, you must go to the hospital for regular wound treatment and timely injection of rabies vaccine, which is effective within 48 hours. Because you are not sure whether the animal that bites you carries the rabies virus, you must get a rabies vaccine just in case.

    Rabies is a high-risk viral infectious disease that is transmitted through the same route as AIDS. It is also a blood-borne infection, and special attention should be paid if the incubation period of the rabies virus is known.

    There are three main ways in which rabies is transmitted.

    1.Infection from being bitten or scratched** by a dog or other animal, or by licking mucous membranes. The rabies virus occurs when it invades nerves through wounds and mucous membranes. This is the main mode of transmission.

    2.Accidental stabbing of the hand during slaughtering or skinning causes the disease.

    3.Gastrointestinal infection. Animals that die of rabies are buried in the ground, frozen in winter, picked up by wild dogs or other animals, eaten meat, and infected with rabies.

    It depends on your gender and the way of xxoo, after all, saliva will spread, as long as it passes through the mucous membranes, it will still be infected.

    It is highly recommended that you prevent it, after all, rabies cannot be **, there is no specific drug, and the fatality rate of the disease is 100%.

    Rabies symptoms (pay attention to yourself).

    People suffering from rabies will have a series of psychiatric symptoms, manifested as high fear, mania, fear of water, fear of wind, fear of light, fear of sound, etc., and gradually appear throat muscle spasms, drooling, paralysis, respiratory and circulatory paralysis and other symptoms. Once rabies is attacked, the case fatality rate is nearly 100%, and patients generally die of respiratory or circulatory failure within 3 to 6 days. In recent years, several cases have been reported.

    ps: The incubation period is a long time, no one dares to guarantee it, it is recommended that the subject try to pay attention to his own safety.

    No, because the rabies virus is transmitted through blood.

  13. Anonymous users2024-02-01

    Not contagious.

    Because after an animal bites a person, if the person is infected with the rabies virus, the virus does not enter the bloodstream, but gradually spreads along the peripheral nerves of the bite to the central nervous system. For example, when you bite a hand, the virus travels from the nerves in the hand to the spine along the nerves in the arm and up to the brain. After infecting the brain, it begins to replicate in large numbers in the brain before it infects the glands and the virus appears in the saliva.

    So during the incubation period, saliva is not toxic. Your classmates are not at risk of infection and do not need to be vaccinated.

    If you can't get infected, don't listen to the rumors of those so-called experts on the Internet, they just trick you into getting vaccinated and then make huge profits from it. The incubation period of the rabies virus does not excrete the virus in saliva, and the World Health Organization has found that the rabies virus is detected in saliva only three days before the onset of the disease. Once the rabies virus host develops the disease, it dies within 3-5 days, and in rare cases, it dies within 8 days.

    If you can find a dog that wants you, you can use the "decameron method" recommended by the World Health Organization

    Yes, but it will be short, no one is so long, the incubation period of people is up to sixty years, but the life span of a dog is only ten years, and the incubation period should be short, but after being bitten by a rabies dog, your dog will also become rabies, carrying the rabies virus, it is best not to be bitten by your dog, to be on the safe side, take your dog to get an injection.
