Rabies fucking virus don't fucking go undetected for 2 years at may nabasa pa akong 5 years daw tsaka umepekto ang rabies, comments are insane
1st reason: Natural Killer Cells can order a fucking cell to commit suicide if it looks stress, not even virus infected, JUST FUCKING STRESSED that's how paranoid it was. 2nd reason: virus multiply rapidly it's not like bacteria that multiply into 2, then to 4, then to 8, 1 virus can replicate to 10, it can replicate billions in day so every cell of his body should be rabies infected by now 3rd reason: death by shutting down of protein synthesis, the organelle that produces proteins is also the organelle that produces virus if a cell is infected by one, it won't be able to repair if a rabies is still present after 2 years 4th reason: since it's not possible for a cell to produce protein when virus infected, Killer T-Cells can see through inside of cell via MHC Class I if it produces proteins if a cell don't produce it will order it to commit suicide.
Kung totoo man yung 5 years na yon bago umepekto ang rabies, it's either the rabies virus that person contracted is abnormally slow for a virus or the person is incomprehensibly immunosuppressed and have incredibly strong cell membrane, or malnourished to the point that triggering an immune response will result on death so the body decides not to and chose to stay silent
comments are full of fake info argh!!!
There are cases nga na lumalabas yung symptoms after a year. Sa pagkakaintindi ko kasi depende sa location ng wound, severity ng wound or baka konti yung viral load na na-introduce sa katawan. Kapag ang kagat ay malayo sa ulo or utak, mas matagal ang symptoms, yan turo ng prof ko noon sa virology.
Nagpa-antirabies ako 2 years ago. Sabi nung doktor, effective daw yung shot up to 2 years. Pero kung nakagat sa collarbone pataas, kailangan magpa-injection ulit.
Kelangan ang booster shots if nakagat ka uli, regardless sa kung saan ka nakagat. At least yun ang sabi dun sa bite center nung nagpa-turok ako last year. Ang pinagkaiba lang is for two years di mo kelangan yung 4-shot series, booster lang. After two years at nakagat ka uli, start from zero ang injections.
Thanks, yun kasi pagkakaalala ko sa sinabi sakin. Medyo di rin ako confident sa sinabi niya na 2 years kaya tinanong ko what if makagat ako ulit. Then yun nga sinabi yung collarbone pataas. Regardless, kahit scratch lang babalik ako sa kanila kasi takot na ko sa rabies (lalo na ngayon na merong kalmado lang na infected). Wouldn't want to take risks.
Yun din naman ang recommendation sa akin, kahit scratch or nadilaan yung open wound, balik uli sa bite center at paturok ng booster. Rabies is no joke.
But also, if you have pets, do your due diligence and make sure their rabies shots (and other vaccines) are up-to-date.
