Rabies vaccine is generally not necessary for bites from domesticated rabbits, but is recommended if the rabbit is wild. Rabies vaccine is a special medication used to prevent rabies before or after exposure and is the only effective means of preventing rabies. Rabies is a disease caused by infection with the rabies virus and is contagious. Rabies-susceptible animals mainly include canines and felines. Domesticated rabbits generally do not carry the rabies virus and therefore do not require rabies vaccination. However, if you are bitten by a rabbit in the wild, it is best to receive rabies vaccination for safety reasons. Patients are advised to keep a good mood and avoid being too nervous. After being bitten by a rabbit, the wound should be treated promptly. You can wash the wound with soapy water and then disinfect it with iodophor, alcohol and other solutions.
