Pets are companions and friends of human beings. It is the obligation and responsibility of human beings to treat animals well and protect them. First of all, we must prevent the occurrence of pet diseases and go to the pet epidemic prevention department for vaccination in time. Once the disease occurs, in order to diagnose and treat promptly, we should go to an animal hospital confirmed by the government for treatment to avoid delaying the condition.

1. Can pet infectious diseases be transmitted to humans?

Yes. But not all pet infectious diseases can be transmitted to humans. For example, the most common diseases in dogs, such as canine distemper, parvovirus, canine infectious hepatitis, and parainfluenza, cannot be transmitted to humans, but rabies can be transmitted to humans. Rabies is generally transmitted through bites from sick animals.

2. Is rabies only transmitted by dogs?

Rabies is not only transmitted by dogs, but also by almost all warm-blooded animals, such as cats, pigs, cows, rats, etc. Therefore, once bitten (or scratched) by such an animal, you should immediately go to the human epidemic prevention department to be injected with rabies vaccine to prevent the disease.

3. If a person is bitten by a dog that has been vaccinated (rabies, etc.), can he not get vaccinated again?

Vaccination vaccinations are also required. Dog vaccinations are to prevent dogs from contracting infectious diseases such as rabies. That is to say, dogs generally will not develop corresponding infectious diseases after being injected with rabies vaccinations. However, the possibility of these dogs carrying the virus cannot be ruled out. After a person is bitten (or scratched) by a dog, the virus will still be transmitted to humans through the wound. Therefore, it is still necessary to go to the human health and epidemic prevention station to get the rabies vaccine in time.

4. How can families with pets prevent the occurrence of zoonotic diseases?

Disinfection and epidemic prevention must be done well: A. Disinfection: Disinfect once a day if you are sick, and once a week if you are not sick. That is to say, when the pet is sick, it must be disinfected with disinfectant once a day; when the pet is not sick, it must be disinfected once a week. Nip viruses in the bud. B.

Reasonable and complete epidemic prevention procedures are an important guarantee to ensure the health of dogs and prevent the occurrence of infectious diseases. Including the selection of vaccines, reasonable immunization procedures and determination of immunity intervals: A. Selection of vaccines: Vaccines include single-combination vaccines to prevent a single disease and multi-combination vaccines to prevent multiple diseases. There are currently five-combination vaccines in China that can prevent five kinds of diseases, six-combination vaccines that can prevent six kinds of diseases, and seven-combination vaccines that can prevent seven kinds of diseases; imported vaccines also have single-combination vaccines.Differences between joint and multiple joints.
