The child of my friend’s family is going to kindergarten this year, and this year The favorite of children is small animals.
Grandpa and grandma spoiled their children again, and bought all the pets they could buy. All kinds of small fish, bunnies, chickens, hedgehogs, hamsters, kittens, and brought back two small parrots a few days ago!
As the saying goes, rabbits bite when they are anxious.
So the problem is coming. If you are bitten by a dog, you need to be vaccinated against rabies. What if you are bitten by a rabbit?

01.
was bitten by a rabbit, do you want to get a rabies vaccine?
There is no rabies virus in rabbits under normal circumstances, so there is no need to fight.
But if the rabbit has been bitten by a dog or cat, there is a very low and very low chance of being caught.
However, at least there have been no reports of rabbits or mice causing rabies in the world.
So if your rabbit doesn’t go out often to come into contact with other cats, dogs or dogs, you don’t need to worry about being bitten, but if the wound is too deep, you still need to consider breaking the cold.

Which animals can be infected with rabies?
Rabies is a viral infectious disease that is fatal in most cases after the appearance of clinical symptoms. Rabies can infect both domestic animals and wild animals, and then spread to people through bites or scratches (usually through saliva).
Dogs are the main source of human rabies infection in my country, followed by cats. Z1z
According to the current rabies epidemic in my country, the risk of injuring animals from spreading rabies can be divided into three levels:
high risk
1, dogs, cats;
2, stray or wild mammals;
3, bats. Z1z
my country is a high-risk area for rabies. Therefore, we recommend that after being injured by a high-risk animal, post-exposure treatment should be carried out in time.
risk
cattle, sheep, horses, pigs and other domestic animals, rabbits, rats and other rodents. Whether to carry out post-exposure disposal after being injured by a low-risk animal should be based on the local epidemic situation. Post-exposure treatment is generally not recommended.
If a low-risk animal is found to have died of unknown reasons, or a low-risk animal is found to have rabies, it is recommended to treat it as a high-risk animal.
low risk
non-mammals do not suffer from rabies, such as turtles, fish, birds, insects, etc., after being injured by it, it is a risk-free exposure and does not require post-rabies treatment.
