A vaccinated dog also needs to be vaccinated after biting a person, and it must be vaccinated in time. Although the dog has been vaccinated, a small number of dogs will not produce antibodies in the body after being vaccinated against rabies. That is to say, even if the dog has been vaccinated, it cannot be judged whether there is rabies virus in the body, and rabies is not yet effective. The lethal rate is very high, almost 100%, so after being bitten by a dog, you must immediately go to the hospital for rabies vaccination. No matter whether the biting dog has been vaccinated or not, for your own safety, you must Get the vaccine right away.

What to do after a dog bites:

1. After being bitten, immediately wash the wound with 20% soapy water and tap water alternately for more than 20 minutes, and at the same time forcefully squeeze out the blood from the wound and surrounding tissues.

2. If the bite is serious and you cannot handle it yourself, you need to go to the hospital for cleaning and disinfection, and infiltrate and inject rabies immune globulin around the wound.

3. Then go to the CDC or community hospital for rabies vaccination. Do not drink alcohol or strong tea during the vaccination period.
