At the same time, several patients injured by dogs and cats came to Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital for rabies vaccine. Experts remind that with the increase of the total number of pets, there are more and more cases injured by cats and dogs in recent years. It's getting hot in June, especially in the season of injury prevention. Experts remind that almost all animals are more 'active' in summer. In addition, in case of thunder and rain, cats and dogs will not feel safe. This season, the public will also bare their skin, so we should take extra care to be injured by cats and dogs.

Do you want to get rabies vaccine if you are bitten by a cat
As long as the skin is bitten by a cat, rabies vaccine is needed. And the best vaccine control within 24 hours after injury is effective.
As long as it is bitten or scratched by animals such as dogs, cats, wolves and so on, as long as the skin is indeed not bitten, it is difficult for rabies virus to invade the body through intact skin, but if there are teeth marks on the skin, it cannot be careless. Sometimes, although no skin damage can be seen, in fact, tooth mark means skin damage that is hard to be detected by the naked eye. In this case, the rabies virus may invade the human body along the tooth mark.
Therefore, it is necessary to disinfect the bitten parts immediately, wash the teeth with soap water, rub iodine, and inject rabies vaccine in the whole process.
