    If you haven't been bitten by a dog, you can also get a rabies vaccine, which will not affect it, and the rabies vaccine is valid for one year, so if you are engaged in related work, you can take the initiative to get vaccinated for prevention.

    For example, dog farms, breeding farms, pet hospitals, pet shops, stray dog shelters, and other jobs that often come into contact with cats and dogs. Vaccinations can be given regularly, generally once a year, to improve safety and be relatively secure.

    There are two types of rabies vaccine, one is routine and the other is urgent, and the routine is to inject the arm to make the body produce antibodies.

    The other is that after an emergency bite, the situation is more dangerous, and the injection will be given around the wound. (Generally, there are immunoglobulins, antibodies, serum, etc.).

    Engage in related work, and you can do it regularly. That is, if you are not bitten, you can take ordinary precautions.
