World Rabies Day makes rabies history
Rabies is a permanent pain with a mortality rate of 100%. September 29 is World Racile Day. The theme of the campaign is "Together to make rabies a thing of the past." The first "World Rabies Day" was September 8, 2007. The world's first rabies prevention and control work took a big step forward, and the main initiator and organizer of the event was encouraged by the Rabies Control Alliance. It is decided to formally establish World Rabies Day on September 28 of each year. Through the establishment of World Rabies Day, a large number of collaborators and volunteers will be gathered together to make rabies a history as soon as possible. Since the pet industry swept China, the number of pets in China has risen sharply, and rabies cases have also advanced by leaps and bounds. According to the report, the World Health Organization says that rabies is spread all over the world. Every year, 55,000 people worldwide die from rabies, that is, one death every 10 minutes. In addition, 10 million people in Asia and Africa receive rabies vaccination after being bitten by dogs that may have rabies. China is the second largest rabies country in the world. More than 3,000 people die each year from rabies. It can be seen that there is a potential danger of rabies in China.
Rabies is a very high mortality rate, and the incubation period is very long. Once it is attacked, there is no escape. Rabies is also known as mad dog disease. The typical feature is that it is afraid of water. When drinking water, the patient will have swallowing tendons and can't swallow the water. Even if the mouth is very thirsty, they will not dare to drink water. This is an acute viral infection that invades the central nervous system. All warm-blooded animals, including humans, may be infected. As long as they are bitten by a dog with rabies, they may become sick. We have always mistakenly believed that only dogs It takes a bite to get sick. In fact, cats, raccoons, raccoons, foxes and bats may also get sick after being bitten. The sick animal is very arrogant and brutal. It will madly bite the person or thing it encounters, and the virus passes through the saliva to another object. Due to the violent nature of rabies, there is no better way than prevention.
How to effectively control rabies? The first is to control and eliminate the source of infection. All citizens must raise their dogs in a civilized manner and promptly vaccinate their pets to reduce the risk of infection. If dogs with rabies are found, the bodies cannot be directly discarded or buried because they are handled in time. The best way to eat is to send it to a professional place for cremation. The second is the treatment of the wound. If it is unfortunately bitten, it should be washed several times with 20% soapy water and then washed with iodine. If there is immune serum, it can be injected into the bottom and around the wound. If the bite is heavier and the wound is seriously contaminated, you can urgently treat the wound and then inject tetanus or other anti-infective treatment.
Therefore, the majority of pets must raise their awareness of pets. In the moment when cats and dogs play and play, these are all huge threats. Only by eliminating the source can you get along more easily, especially the smartness of raising alternative pets. Don't be "spoofed" by the gentleness of the pet's surface. To correct a mistake here, many people think that the rabies vaccine is effective within 24 hours. In fact, the sooner the vaccine is injected, the better, and as long as the injured person does not have an attack, they can be vaccinated and can also play a role. Rabies will be gradually controlled under the joint efforts of everyone.
