How to deal with rat bites

After being bitten by rats, disinfection treatment should be done as soon as possible. Rinse with flowing water for half an hour, rinse with soapy water or salt water, disinfect with iodine, keep the wound open as much as possible, and do not bandage it. If the wound is deep, seriously polluted, and the wound area is large, go to the hospital to disinfect the wound in time. According to the 2016 rabies management guidelines, rabies hosts include dogs, cats, bats and other animals. Rats are not animals carrying rabies virus, but it is recommended to inject rabies vaccine for safety reasons. Because there is no specific drug to treat rabies at this stage, if rabies attacks, it will basically die. If the wound is serious, it is recommended to inject tetanus vaccine.
