What are the chances of a cat carrying rabies

The chances of a cat carrying rabies are relatively low, but there is no clear scientific data.
Rabies is an infectious disease of animal origin, caused by the rabies virus infecting the central nervous system; for human beings, once rabies develops, the mortality rate is almost 100%.
According to the data released by the Chinese Center for the Prevention and Control of Animal Diseases (CCPCAD), for the people of China, the proportion of rabies caused by cats in all cases is 4%, which shows that the chances of cats carrying the rabies virus are relatively low.
Although there is no statistical data to clearly indicate the probability of cats carrying the rabies virus, but in general, the chances of this is relatively low, but their own cat bites or scratches, should be timely inoculation of rabies vaccine.
