summary

The route of rabies virus entering human body is as follows: firstly, it infects muscle cells, goes through the latent period in muscle cells, and then enters nerve cells through acetylcholine receptor between muscle cells and nerve cells. The average moving speed of rabies virus in peripheral nerve tissue is 3mm / h, and it can propagate and spread to the whole central nerve tissue in one day after it ascends to central nerve tissue (brain spinal cord).

matters needing attention

Ten day observation is one of the methods recommended by the World Health Organization (who) for the prevention and treatment of rabies, that is, after being bitten by warm blooded animals such as dogs (CATS) with disease symptoms or abnormal behavior with healthy cats (dogs), the rabies vaccine should be injected as soon as possible. At the same time, the bitten cats (dogs) should be observed. If the cats or dogs have not died of rabies within 10 days, The rabies pre vaccine injection can be terminated, and it can be judged that the bitten person is not infected with rabies at all. This method can completely eliminate all the possibilities of rabies transmission.
