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, so that most of the invading virus can be washed away, and then go to the health and epidemic prevention department as soon as possible to inject rabies vaccine. The sooner the vaccine is administered, the better the effect and the more likely it is to be protected.
Knowing a little bit about it might give you a little peace of mind. Rabies is terrible, but there's no need to be a snake.
Only when a dog (or other warm-blooded animal) has rabies will his teeth spread the germs.
If you are your own dog (or other warm-blooded animal), you don't need to be vaccinated at all.
If a dog (or other warm-blooded animal) does have rabies, it will die within a week, and there is basically no case where a dog does not die.
Here's what the World Health Organization has to say.
1. If you are bitten by a dog (or other warm-blooded animal) that has symptoms of disease or has abnormal behavior with a healthy dog (or other warm-blooded animal), you should get the rabies vaccine as soon as possible after you are bitten. Also observe the dog that bites you (or other warm-blooded animals that bite you), if the animal has not died of rabies within 10 days, you can stop the rabies vaccination, and you can determine that you have not been infected with rabies at all.
2.Healthy dogs (or other warm-blooded animals) are not poisonous. ("Poisonous" is a medical term that means "infectious," and "non-toxic" means that even if dogs, cats, etc., carry the rabies virus, they are not contagious until they develop the disease.) )
That is, if you are sure that your dog is healthy, you don't need to be vaccinated at all.

It doesn't matter if the dog dies and you are bitten, you don't bleed, don't scare yourself!
-
The rabies virus will only be present in the saliva of dogs for 2 to 3 days before the onset of rabies, and dogs will die after 7 days after the onset of rabies, so judge: if the dog does not die after 10 days of being bitten by the dog, the bitten person will be fine.
-
Not necessarily! The incubation period of rabies virus in the human body is several years.
-
This is not true.
The "10-day observation method", a rabies prevention and control method recommended by the World Health Organization, is often misunderstood to mean that the bitten cat or dog does nothing after being bitten, and only locks up the biting cat and dog for 10 days, and the animal is fine.
In fact, if you are bitten or scratched by a dog, you should immediately rinse the wound repeatedly with 20% soapy water, disinfect the wound with 2%-3% iodine or 75% alcohol, and immediately go to a designated rabies immunization clinic for wound management and rabies vaccination. At the same time, the animals are observed. If the animal remains healthy during the 10-day observation period, or if it is confirmed by reliable laboratory diagnostic techniques that the animal does not carry the rabies virus, the remaining vaccine injections can be stopped.
No! There is no broken skin, no bleeding, just slightly red but no damage, there is no need to worry. In this case, rabies will not be infected. >>>More
If there is no bleeding, you should be able to skip the injection. I've also encountered this problem, and I've consulted the epidemic prevention station!

I've been bitten by a dog for a year and can't be vaccinated. If you are bitten by a dog, you must be tired within 24 hours.
I was scratched by a cat without a single bruise, and I didn't get a rabies shot, so I have 40 days to do.
