The rabies virus is still contagious after drying, but it is relatively less contagious. Rabies virus is a kind of neurovirus, which needs to survive in human body fluids and nerve cells, and when it leaves the human body, its survival time is shorter in the ordinary environment, especially under dryness and high temperature, its survival time will be further shortened. Therefore, after the rabies virus dries out, its infectiousness will gradually diminish until it is lost. Rabies is a serious infectious disease with a 100% mortality rate once it develops, so be vigilant. Once bitten and scratched by dogs, cats and other animals, it is recommended that you seek immediate medical attention, clean the wound under the guidance of a doctor, and receive rabies vaccination and take other measures if necessary.
