On May 11th, a wild dog attack on a human was repeated! Sadly, the man has passed away.
In fact, the matter was not so serious, but because the victim did not care too much about his wounds and did not inject the rabies vaccine in time, he died of rabies more than a month later!
Event recap
In a small mountain village in Zhejiang, the morning mist has not yet lifted, and the tea plantation is already busy.
Tea farmer Brother Li, a medium-sized, dark-skinned man, is shuttling among the verdant tea trees, expertly picking tea leaves with his hands.
However, in this quiet corner, an unexpected encounter pushes his life into the abyss.
On that day, the sun shines through the clouds and falls on the tea plantations, creating dappled light and shadow.
Brother Li was immersed in the busyness of picking, when suddenly, a wild dog came out of the grass, with a fierce glint in his eyes.
It rushed towards Brother Li, and its sharp teeth instantly pierced his right eyelid. Brother Li gasped in pain, but fortunately there was no bleeding, which also made Brother Li have a fluke mentality and continue to work.
"Why did this dog go crazy all of a sudden?" Brother Li thought to himself, but he didn't care, he just sped up the speed of picking, wanting to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
However, it doesn't end there......
A week later, when Brother Li went up the mountain again to pick tea, he accidentally found the carcass of the wild dog. It was lying in the grass by the side of the road, its eyes closed and its body stiff.
Brother Li was shocked, but he didn't connect the incident with his own wounds, let alone realize that it was a sign of rabies.
In the following days, Brother Li's body began to show abnormalities. He became obsessed with appetite and lost his spirits.
One night, he suddenly developed a high fever and convulsions all over his body. Seeing this, his family rushed him to the emergency department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine.
In the emergency room, the doctors conducted a comprehensive examination of Brother Li. They found that Brother Li's condition was unusually serious, with shortness of breath, gibberish, and constant convulsions.
In the face of rabies, doctors are also powerless
Based on his symptoms and medical history, doctors judged that he was likely infected with rabies.
This news was unacceptable to Brother Li's family, and they wept bitterly and begged the doctor to save him.
However, the power of rabies is enormous, with a 100% cure rate, and despite the best efforts of the doctors to treat Brother Li, his condition deteriorated rapidly.
His hands began to dance involuntarily into fists, and saliva kept flowing. His eyes lost their former sparkle, hollow and confused.
In the end, under the torture of illness, Brother Li closed his eyes forever.
Brother Li's death has plunged the entire mountain village into grief. The villagers came to mourn him and give him his last ride.
Speaking of which, in the end
This tragedy is also a wake-up call for us: we must be vigilant and cautious in our contact with animals. Any seemingly tiny wound can hide a fatal danger.
Therefore, if we are bitten by a wild dog, we should wash the wound in time and seek medical attention as soon as possible to assess whether vaccination is needed.
Only in this way can we avoid similar tragedies from happening again.
Let's learn from Brother Li's tragedy! Cherish life and stay away from danger. May the departed rest in peace, and may the living be awake!
