summary

Once bitten by a dog, it's easy to cause rabies because of the bacteria on the dog and wound infection. What's the incubation period of rabies? I'll explain it for you.

What is the incubation period of rabies

First, the incubation period of rabies is generally from half a month to three months. The incubation period of most cases is concentrated in 30-90 days, less than 1% over one year, and individual cases can reach six years. Less than 15 days and more than one year are rare, and more than 99% of the total cases have incubation period less than one year

Second, in fact, only 1% of the cases have been reported for more than one year. It can be said that it is very rare. After six years, it can be considered that there is no disease.

Third, the injection is effective before the onset of the disease, but people do not get sick after the longest incubation period of 1 year, people can not carry rabies virus, but after 6 years, the injection is not necessary.

matters needing attention

In peacetime, if rabies occurs, it cannot be cured, so no matter whether you are infected with the virus after biting and scratching, you should get rabies vaccine as soon as possible.
