狂犬病是一种由狂犬病毒引起的疾病。通常,它是一种动物疾病。但若被感染狂犬病毒的动物咬伤,人类也可能患上狂犬病。人类狂犬病是致死的。大多数狂犬病例都是在被咬伤后的一年内发病。
 
被感染狂犬病毒的动物咬伤后是需要接种狂犬疫苗的。如果你因接触疑似狂犬病毒正在接受治疗,应立即询问医生以确认所接种的疫苗是否是此次中国疫苗事件中的涉事疫苗。如果是,医生会采取正确的应对措施。如果你在过去因接触疑似狂犬病毒接受过治疗,也应与当事医生核实所接种的疫苗是否是涉事疫苗,并采取正确的应对措施。
 
狂犬疫苗时常也会被用于预防未来可能与感染动物接触并感染狂犬病毒的情况。若属于此情况,应与接种门诊核实所接种的疫苗是不是涉事疫苗。如果是,则需要重新接种。


How could I know if I am vaccinated with an ineffective rabies vaccine? If it is ineffective, what’s the fatality rate of rabies? If the symptoms are already shown, will it still work if revaccinated with an effective  vaccine?

Rabies is a disease caused by rabies virus. It is usually a disease of animals, but humans can get rabies when bitten by an infected animal. Human rabies is fatal. People develop symptoms of rabies within a year of exposure most cases. Longer incubation periods are unusual.

Rabies vaccine is always needed after a bite from an infected animal. If you are being treated for a suspected rabies exposure, you should immediately ask the doctor treating you to determine if the vaccine was one of the implicated vaccines. If so, your doctor will determine the proper course of action. If you were treated in the past for suspected rabies exposure, you should check with the doctor who treated you to determine if you received the implicated vaccine and to determine a proper course of action.

Rabies vaccine is often given to help prevent rabies in case of a future exposure to an infected animal. In this case, you should check with the clinic to determine whether your received any of the implicated vaccine. If so, the dose or doses would likely need to be repeated.
