Being bitten by a dog does not necessarily lead to rabies infection. Whether being bitten by a dog will cause rabies infection is mainly related to factors such as whether the dog is infected with rabies virus, the depth of the bite site, and the patient's ability to repair. If the dog is infected with rabies virus, and the patient is bitten deeply, the patient is not injected with rabies vaccine in time, and the probability of infection is greater.
