The skin is not well suited for the rabies virus to survive, so the rabies virus usually only survives for a few minutes on human skin. The rabies virus is an anaerobic virus that survives in an oxygen-poor or oxygen-poor environment. Human skin, however, is directly exposed to the outside air, and there is more oxygen in the air, so it is not suitable for the rabies virus to survive, and rabies tends to die within minutes. Therefore, the rabies virus usually only survives for a few minutes on human skin. In daily life, if you are licked or nibbled on the skin by domestic pets such as cats, dogs or stray animals, it is recommended that you first use soapy water to clean the area and confirm whether there is any skin breakage. If necessary, timely rabies vaccination is required within 24 hours and local wound debridement and disinfection treatment with the help of a doctor.
