After we are bitten and injured by various small animals, we are easily infected by viruses, which have great harm to our health, and even lead to death in serious cases. Therefore, when we are bitten by animals, we must Go to a regular hospital to get rabies vaccine, how long is the rabies vaccine valid?

1. Validity period of rabies vaccine

The rabies vaccine was first produced by Pasteur in France, and is a vaccine used to adapt to various virus species. After rabies vaccination, there will be anti-rabies virus antibodies in our blood, which can effectively reduce the virus, prevent the virus from spreading, and control the spread of rabies.

A total of five injections of rabies vaccine are required. After the third injection of rabies vaccine, the body will produce antibodies against the virus. The next two injections are for strengthening immunity. The validity period is generally six months. The point is that after being vaccinated, if you are accidentally bitten by a pet within the past six months, you don't need to get rabies vaccine again.

Some people will experience redness, swelling, itching, edema and induration of the skin after rabies vaccination. These are all normal. The symptoms are generally mild. Rabies is a direct fatal disease. So no matter what discomfort you have, you should be vaccinated immediately, other things are secondary, so you don't need to worry too much.

2. Objects of vaccination

1. Those who are bitten by cats, dogs and other animals, or who are bitten, bleed or scratched, or whose skin wounds are licked by animals, Must be vaccinated against rabies.

2. Those who have been in contact with animals and viruses for a long time, such as the attending doctor of rabies patients, personnel who do rabies virus experiments, animal husbandry personnel, slaughter personnel, personnel who raise animals, and those who go to more serious epidemic areas, etc. Staff must also be vaccinated against rabies.

The above is the introduction of the validity period of rabies vaccine and the target of vaccination. I believe that you have a better understanding of rabies vaccine. If you are bitten by pets, you must first wash and disinfect with soap and water, and then Go to the hospital to get the rabies vaccine.
