    I don't know what it means to ask? Does it mean that the rabies vaccine has been put on hold for more than 40 days and will not be invalidated? Or is it effective to get vaccinated more than 40 days after being bitten by a dog?

    According to these two questions, the rabies vaccine will not be invalid if stored in the refrigerator at 2-8 degrees Celsius (of course, it has not passed the expiration date). The second question, I was bitten by a dog and was not vaccinated at the time, is it too late now?

    Of course, it was late, and the United Nations recommended that the first shot be given within 24 hours. However, if necessary, even if you were bitten a few years ago, it will be too late to be beaten again.

    Here's a Q&A on this question for your reference:

    59.I was bitten by a dog many years ago, do I still need a rabies vaccine?

    Answer: Where the dog bite has passed a few months or years of people still need to carry out preventive treatment, is worth discussing, rabies virus into the human body after the onset of the period, called rabies incubation period, this period can be a few days, months or years, and to 20 years, generally within 3 months accounted for 85%, within 6 months accounted for 90, within 1 year accounted for 96, more than 1 year of the incidence accounted for only 4% of all cases, according to the World Health Organization's rabies experts in 1994, The longest incubation period with exact scientific data is 19 years and 6 months, that is to say, those who are bitten by a mad dog or a suspected rabid dog without preventive treatment, even after a few years or more than ten years, there is still the possibility of rabies, and it is advisable to make up for preventive treatment, but at this time, the bite wound has long been healed, there is no problem of local treatment, and there is no need to use anti-rabies serum, just do vaccine injection.

    Quoted from Tianjin Center for Disease Prevention and Control, "Rabies Prevention Knowledge Q&A".

    The injection is given within 24 hours of the bite, and if the dog itself does not carry the rabies virus, it will take effect within 5 shots.

    If you didn't get vaccinated at that time, and you were scared afterwards and hesitated to get vaccinated, then according to the principle of the ten-day observation method, if the cat and dog were still healthy after ten days, the risk of infection was absolutely ruled out and there was no need for vaccination! But if you can't observe, or if the cat or dog dies within 10 days, go for vaccination! Remember that at any time, as long as you can get vaccinated to form antibodies before the onset of the disease, you are safe, and the antibodies can neutralize all the viruses in the peripheral nervous system (usually 7-14 days after the first shot).

    Claims such as how many hours are invalid are rumors and have long been debunked。Anyone who was bitten by a wild cat or dog, did not have an injection at that time, and did not have the conditions for ten-day observation, and could not confirm the state of the cat or dog, must be refilled, and the vast majority of them are in time! Don't believe the rumors and lose the chance to save a life!

    Rabies vaccination should be given as soon as possible, and after being bitten by an animal, you should go to a regular hospital for vaccination to prevent the occurrence of rabies.

    After suffering from rabies, the characteristic clinical manifestations are hydrophobia, photophobia, dysphagia, mania, etc., and finally death from respiratory, circulatory and systemic failure. There is usually an incubation period of 1 to 3 months, and by the time clinical signs appear, the rabies virus has spread throughout the body.

    If you are bitten by an animal (such as a dog, cat, wolf, etc.) and you are not sure whether the animal is a healthy and non-toxic animal, you should go to the hospital in time to treat the wound, or wash the wound repeatedly and thoroughly with soap and water, and then go to the health and epidemic prevention department for rabies vaccination as soon as possible.

    For severe bites, in addition to thorough local cleaning and disinfection, rabies serum infiltration injection should be used around the wound. This is followed by rabies vaccination. Bitten wounds should not be bandaged and sutured, leaving the wound as exposed as possible.

    No need to fight. I listened to your details because you are a knowledgeable person who does not know anything about rabies.

    Analysis:1It's just a bruise, it wasn't broken at the time, and it is suspected that you touched it before. If the dog bites you at that time, you will definitely feel it. Since it doesn't feel it, it's not what it did.

    2.The clothes are not torn, and if they are torn, you must have known that it is biting you, and the clothes are not torn.

    3.You flush your legs with water, and that's right. It's relatively clean, and it's not much of a problem to scratch it with your hands.

    4.Dogs generally don't tear people's clothes unless they obviously attack you, in which case, you know that the dog has bitten you. Were you drunk at the time?

    5.It is not possible to watch the dog for 10 days without getting sick. If you don't have a face, you are less powerful; If it does, it's probably too late for you to get the injection.

    In short, you judge comprehensively. If you can't believe it, if you want to fight, go for it immediately. Now it's winter, and you're dressed thickly, and by the time the dogs bruise you, I think you'll know.

    Since it doesn't know at all, it didn't do it. Don't worry, think about it, if you're so stupid that you can't even figure this out, I think you're pretending to be a "prosthetic"! Anything is said in vain.
