If the patient is scratched by a cat, the probability of getting rabies in this case is very low, usually between 1% and 2% probability. Once infected with the rabies virus, no form of treatment will be able to save the patient’s life, so patients are advised to pay attention to the prevention of this disease. If you have been scratched by a cat, you must go to the hospital for a rabies vaccination to prevent rabies infection. In general, rabies vaccination must be administered within 24 hours of the scratch, and if it is not administered within 24 hours, it is recommended that it is supplemented in time, as the earlier the injection is administered after the scratch, the better the effect of the vaccination.
