Rabies is primarily caused by not getting vaccinated after being bitten by a rabid dog; this has been found in epidemiological studies in our country. In addition to bites from rabid dogs, there are also instances of people being bitten or scratched by cats, or bitten by bats, though these are relatively less common. So far, there have been no cases found of transmission from human to human. Rabies is a fatal disease; once infected, the mortality rate is 100%. Therefore, after being bitten by a dog, it is crucial to take preventive measures, treat the wound, and administer rabies vaccine and rabies immunoglobulin to generally prevent infection.
