Rabies is a fatal disease. Saliva of a rabid dog is a rich source of rabies virus. We report a patient who suffered of rabies, who was infected by abrasion caused by the nails of a rabid dog. Dogs often lick their nails and thereby transfer the rabies virus-contaminated saliva to their claws. Despite treatment in our Intensive Care Unit and application of various pharmacological antidotes, we were unable to prevent the fatal outcome.
狂犬病是一种致命疾病。疯狗的唾液是狂犬病病毒的丰富来源。我们报告了一名患有狂犬病的患者,他是被一只疯狗的爪子抓伤而感染的。狗经常舔舐它们的爪子,从而将被狂犬病病毒污染的唾液转移到爪子上。尽管在我们的重症监护病房进行了治疗并应用了各种药理学解毒剂,但我们仍无法阻止致命的结局。
