Rabies virus is generally not transmitted by indirect contact. The main mode of transmission of rabies virus is direct transmission, which is transmitted after being scratched or bitten by animals such as cats or dogs, or when the wound is licked by cats or dogs infected with rabies virus and infected through saliva, etc. These modes of transmission are the most common in life. Indirect contact transmission refers to contact with towels, washbasins, rice bowls, etc., used by patients infected with rabies. Since the rabies virus is difficult to survive when it is detached from the body of the infected person, it is impossible to establish an effective transmission pathway, and it is difficult to transmit the infection, especially when there is no skin breakage or mucous membrane contact. Therefore, rabies virus is generally not transmitted through indirect contact. It is recommended to stay away from stray dogs and cats in daily life and not to actively tease them to prevent being bitten. If you have pets at home, you should also bring your pets for vaccination in time to prevent rabies virus infection.
