Rabies vaccine is a rabies vaccine and anti-rabies serum that is administered to a person after being bitten by an animal to prevent rabies infection. Rabies is a natural epidemic or zoonotic acute infectious disease caused by rabies virus. The epidemic is widespread and the case fatality rate is extremely high, posing a serious threat to people's lives and health.

Strict management of dogs, dog immunization or dog killing are active and effective methods for controlling human rabies. There is currently no special effective treatment for this disease, and the mortality rate is almost 100%.

The rabies vaccine is a long-standing vaccine. The earliest manufacturer of rabies vaccine was Pasteur of France. In 1882, he successfully applied successive passages to weaken the virus's virulence and used the adapted virus to make vaccines. Made in China now

1. The vaccine quality is not good. Generally speaking, the vaccine put on the market can meet the national quality standards. However, if the storage and transportation are not strictly required according to the prescribed conditions, the vaccine quality will be severely affected, resulting in artificial immunity failure.

2. Immunization procedures are not standardized after severe bites in special cases only. Immunization failure is also related to incorrect post-exposure (also known as infection) treatment. If humans are severely bitten by animals in special cases only, Pay attention to vaccination, neglect the infiltration of immune serum in the injured area.

3. Immunity deficiency before exposure. The incubation period for rabies is mostly 30 to 60 days. However, some patients have a short period of time from exposure to onset of illness, and the onset of rabies vaccine has not yet been completed. These patients are difficult to protect against even high-quality rabies vaccines.
