Can a wound touching a piece of clothing that has been licked by a dog transmit rabies?

No, rabies is an anaerobic virus that dies within three minutes of exposure to air.

There is no virus in the dog's saliva.

Rabies virus is generally only present in large quantities in the saliva of pre-affected animals, and is generally absent in the saliva of animals that have been infected with rabies virus but are still in the incubation period. (A small amount of virus may appear in saliva near the onset of the disease).

Dogs' saliva is non-toxic but has a large number of bacteria

Many people are anxious to know whether the dog's saliva is toxic and whether it will transmit diseases to themselves when they accidentally swallow it or get it on the wound. The dog's saliva itself is not toxic, but it has a corrosive effect and has digestive juices, which is similar to that of a human.

But there are a lot of bacteria in the dog's mouth, they will hide in the dog's saliva, these bacteria and viruses are prone to infection when they come into contact with our broken **.

How to tell if a dog has rabies

1. Ask the owner: Generally speaking, the vast majority of dogs with rabies are stray dogs, and pet dogs will basically not get rabies as long as they are properly managed. We can tell if a dog has an owner by its appearance and ask the owner of the dog if it has regular vaccinations.

2. Obvious abnormalities: Dogs with rabies will show obvious abnormalities in their bodies and behaviors, such as mental malaise, dull coat color, dry and drooling, etc., and behavioral abnormalities are manifested as easy anger, walking swinging, liking light and dark places, etc.

Human rabies is usually contracted by the bite of a sick animal.

A dog bite does not necessarily get rabies, and if the dog that bites a person does not carry the rabies virus, it will not get rabies even if the wound is not treated. Some scholars have found that they are bitten by real rabies or other mad animals, and no preventive measures are taken, and only 15%-30% of people get sick. The main source of rabies infection in China is sick dogs, and some seemingly healthy dogs can carry the virus in their saliva, and the virus carrying rate can reach and can also spread rabies.

There is currently no way to detect whether a dog has the virus, so if you are bitten or scratched by a pet such as a dog or cat, you should wash the wound immediately.

Tie a tourniquet at the proximal end of the bite site, squeeze out the blood from the wound, promote the flow of virus-containing blood, and thoroughly rinse the wound with a large amount of soapy water, salt water or water for more than half an hour, and then rinse the wound with iodine and alcohol.

At the same time, dogs and cats should be isolated and observed for 14 days to clarify whether they are rabies or cats, and if necessary, they can be sent to the epidemic prevention station for inspection. After the wound is treated, it is best not to go to the health and epidemic prevention station in time to inject rabies vaccine for more than 24 hours, if the dog or cat cannot be traced, the whole course of vaccination should be carried out to the end. In addition, children who have been in close contact with rabies should be vaccinated against rabies, even if there are no obvious bites or scratches.

It's fine, but if you're really not at ease, go get an injection.

To add, I am often scratched by my dog, she likes to be clingy, and she uses her paws to pick her arms several times.

What happens if you get licked by a dog, can you get rabies? However, many people fall into the trap.

In fact, rabies has a certain probability of infection and incidence, but once infected and not treated before the incubation period, it is 100% fatal. Therefore, although there is a possibility that he has not been infected at all, I still recommend that the landlord seek medical attention as soon as possible, follow the doctor's instructions, and feel at ease.

Not in general!! Dogs don't have any germs in their mouths before 3 months ago! Please don't worry.

No, my dog often licks the dog's saliva has the effect of disinfecting and speeding up the healing of wounds, and the dog often licks its own wounds, and generally dogs have been to rabies seedlings when the full moon is full.

No, I've been bitten by my dog anyway, but if the dog is healthy and hygienic, it won't get rabies.

2。。To be on the safe side, go for the rabies vaccination, once and for all.

If the dog is sick, there is a chance that it will be infected, and if the dog is not sick, it is less likely.

Injections, brother, do you want to gamble with your life?。。

No, there are a lot of horrors on the Internet to spread the viciousness of rabies, but I forgot to put the good ones in front, in fact, it is the vaccine company's vaccine that sells badly before it starts to spread the harm of rabies, your wound is licked by dogs, and you can't fight if you encounter these transmissions, saying that cats and dogs will only be infected with rabies during the infectious period, do you think they will lick you when they reach the infectious period? They just bite into it.

Hello, don't worry, it won't!

It is possible that vaccinations are recommended.

1. Healthy dogs (cats and other animals) are not poisonous. ("Toxic" is a medical term that means "infectious," and "non-toxic" means that even if a dog or cat carries the rabies virus, it is not contagious until they become ill.) No injections).

2. Rabies virus disease is caused by the virus attacking animal brain cells to cause rabies attacks, and animals generally have very obvious abnormalities at this time, which are easy to identify. At this time, the saliva of the animal is poisonous (there is a virus) and is infectious, and if you are bitten by such an animal, you must get a rabies vaccination.

3. Dogs (cats) are only poisoned after the onset of rabies. If a warm-blooded animal with rabies bites a person, it is possible to spread the rabies virus to a person through saliva, and you need to take rabies prevention measures.

4. In view of the fact that 100% of warm-blooded animals such as dogs and cats die within 3 to 5 days after the onset of rabies (some literature says that there are rare deaths within 8 days). Therefore, it is only in the 3-5 days before its death that it is contagious, and it is dangerous to be bitten. Even if you are bitten, you don't have to worry if the dog (cat) does not die of rabies within 10 days, because the bite is not in the infectious period.

10 days is a specially extended safety observation period by the World Health Organization) (this period was originally proposed by Dr. Thailand, noting that Thailand is also an area with a high incidence of rabies and is also an endemic area).

5. Be bitten by a warm-blooded animal such as a dog (cat) with symptoms of disease or abnormal behavior with a healthy cat (dog), after you are bitten, you should be injected with rabies vaccine as soon as possible, and at the same time observe the cat (dog) that bites you, if within 10 days, the cat or dog has not yet had rabies, you can terminate the rabies vaccination, and you can determine that you have not been infected with rabies at all.

6. Rabies has an incubation period, the World Health Organization through detailed research, most of them are 20 days to 2 months, and the longest period is 6 years, as for some examples in China, the World Health Organization expressed doubts that the world has not found evidence of long-term incubation examples, infectious disease medical experts and believe that it may be misdiagnosis or secondary exposure (medical term, the second time to be transmitted).

7. Rabies vaccination can be delayed. (If you have been bitten and it has been 6 years, you can rest assured, if the injury is old within 6 years, you can be vaccinated again, which is the same as one exposure (first bite). This is the basic response to rabies, since the dog has not died for 10 days, there will be no problem, the healing wound will feel itchy, this is a normal phenomenon of wound healing, the new **instead of the damage**, this is not rabies, nor is it panic, it is normal, I wish you a speedy **!

It's okay, the dog is injured to find a corner to lick the wound, and the wound will heal slowly, which shows the role of dog saliva and sterilization and infection prevention. The itching of LZ wounds is mostly healing, which is a normal phenomenon.

You just have a mental effect, you won't have that symptom if you are infected with rabies, if your wound is scabbed, you are not afraid, and you are not afraid of the puppy vaccination.
