有一位妈妈在微博给我留言:“冀老师,我一岁半的儿子被邻居家狗抓破了手,不想给孩子打针,我可不可以采取十日观察法在家观察?”这是典型的对十日观察法的误解,我建议她马上带宝宝去接种狂犬病疫苗,同时纠正她对十日观察法的理解误区。
十日观察法并不是让你什么都不做,只把咬人的猫狗关起来观察十天,动物没事了你就没事了,而是应该立即接种狂犬病疫苗,同时再对动物进行观察,如果动物在10天的观察期内保持健康,或经可靠的实验室诊断技术证实动物不携带狂犬病病毒,则可以停止接种剩下的疫苗或者把暴露后的疫苗接种程序改成暴露前的预防接种程序。这个问题在倡导十日观察法的世界卫生组织官方网站上就可以找到答案,我摘录如下,同时附了原文的链接。
Q 12: Is simply observing the biting dog or cat
for 10 days without starting treatment
justified?
No. In countries where rabies is prevalent in a large
population of dogs and cats, it is compulsory to start
treatment and keep the biting dog/cat under 10
days of observation. If the animal remains healthy
during the observation period then post-exposure
prophylaxis (PEP) can be converted into pre-exposure
regimen, i.e. the vaccine taken will be to prevent
rabies ifbitten in the future.
