Can people get rabies if they eat food bitten by dogs?

This needs to meet three conditions: the dog is a rabid dog; And under attack; You happen to have ulcers and other wounds in your mouth. If any conditions are not met, it cannot be transmitted.

After the wound is treated and disinfected, it is best to observe the biting dog or cat in isolation. If the dog and cat do not die within 10 days after biting, it proves that the saliva of the bitten dog and cat does not contain rabies virus.

According to WHO's research, only a few days before the death of a dog or cat is the infectious period of rabies, and being bitten is very dangerous. If a cat or dog dies during the observation period, people can get rabies vaccine instead of within 24 hours after being bitten.

Extended data

Rabies is an acute infectious disease caused by rabies virus, which is zoonotic, especially for carnivores such as dogs, wolves and cats. Most people are infected by bites from sick animals. The clinical manifestations are peculiar fear of water, wind, pharyngeal muscle spasm and progressive paralysis. Because of the prominent symptoms of water phobia, this disease is also called water phobia.

Rabies virus belongs to rabies virus genus of Rhabdoviridae, which is a single-stranded RNA virus. Animals spread the virus by biting each other. Rabies in China is mainly transmitted by dogs, and domestic dogs can become asymptomatic carriers, so seemingly "healthy" dogs are very harmful to human health. There is no effective treatment for rabies. The death rate of human rabies is nearly 100%, and patients usually die of respiratory or circulatory failure within 3 ~ 6 days, so preventive measures should be strengthened.
