As Zhang Zian walked, the cat bag swayed gently, and the rhythm was transmitted from the strap to his palm.
The Siamese cat seemed to be struggling, twitching, or spasming. Anyway, it wasn't lying down peacefully. It might already be in the final stage of rabies. It had sunk into hysteria and was extremely aggressive.
In other words, it was no longer a pet cat, but a dying beast that would bite and scratch all creatures that approached it.
Fina quickly caught up and sniffed around the cat bag.
Maybe it felt Fina's approach, but the Siamese cat struggled even more in the cat bag.
"Don't get too close. This is a serious infectious disease. Even touching its saliva can spread it." Zhang Zian changed the cat bag to another hand and used his body to separate Fina from the cat bag.
"Don't treat me like a fool!" Fina curled her lips in disdain. "Do you think I'm ignorant?"
"Oh? You know about it? "Zhang Zian was quite surprised.
Fina stared into the distance thoughtfully. "Of course I know. As early as 2000 years ago in the Holy Kingdom, this disease had already taken the lives of many cats and humans … No, in an earlier era, when the first pyramid was built on the black land of the Holy Kingdom, this disease had already begun to spread quietly. People believed that the jackals in the desert had bitten the traveling merchants and brought them into the Divine Kingdom … Many scholars and the personal doctors of the Pharaoh had racked their brains in order to cure this terrifying disease. There were countless times when they thought that they had found a cure for the disease, but without exception, they all ended in failure. There were even people who tested the disease on their own bodies in order to show off in front of the Pharaoh. In the end, they only died. "
Zhang Zian was speechless.
He knew that rabies had a long history, almost as long as human civilization. There were related records in ancient civilizations all over the world, but he didn't expect that even Fina knew about it.
However, he immediately thought of another question.
"Since you know about it, aren't you afraid?" He pointed at the cat bag in his hand. "Seeing how eager you were in the shop just now, what if it ran out of the cat bag and started scratching and biting? What would you do?"
"For the honor of cats, of course I would kill it on the spot! This is my kindness! "Fei Na said without hesitation.
"Aren't you afraid of getting scratched?" Zhang Zian asked again.
Fina pulled a long face. "Are you looking down on me? How could a mere mortal cat hurt me? "
"In case, I mean in case." It felt so good about itself that he had to emphasize it.
"Even so, I must stop it." Fei Na said firmly, "If I'm afraid of death and can't take the lead, how can I command thousands of cats to serve me?"
"… It's okay to be afraid of death once in a while, right? Staying alive is more important than anything else. Nowadays, people pay attention to wretched development. Only by staying alive can you have DPS, "Zhang Zian said while shaking his head.
He did not agree, because he was just a mortal, an ordinary citizen, and could not understand Fei Na's pride and glory.
Fina tilted her head and glanced at him. Surprisingly, she didn't mock him. Instead, she said, "From what you said before, there's already a special medicine for rabies in this era?"
"It's not a special medicine." Zhang Zian explained, "It's just a vaccine. If you're scratched or bitten by a sick animal, if you can go to the hospital in time for a vaccine injection, the chances of being infected will be greatly reduced. However, vaccines are not omnipotent. Many people are careless and think that it's okay, so they don't need to be injected. Some people have a fluke mentality and don't want to be injected because of the cost of the vaccine. Some people don't even know that they need to be injected. For example, Liu Wenying just now. She didn't think about it at all. She thought that rabies was only transmitted by dogs and that it was okay to be scratched by cats. "
Many people thought this way, thinking that rabies could only be transmitted by saliva. If you were bitten by a dog, you would need to be injected. If you were bitten by a cat, you would also need to be injected. However, if you were scratched by a cat, you would feel that there was no need to be injected. This was a big mistake, because cats had a habit of licking their claws … Just look at Snowy Lionet.
"It doesn't mean that if you're bitten by a sick animal, you will definitely get sick. The probability of getting sick is actually only 15%, but it's not worth it to gamble your life for this 15% probability. Even if you're injected with a vaccine in time after being bitten, there's still a 1% chance that it won't work. After all, vaccines are not elixirs, "he added.
"Is this why you're worried? Afraid that you'll become the 1%? "Fei Na asked, staring at his face.
"?" Zhang Zian was stunned.
"You should look in the mirror." That was all Fei Na said.
Zhang Zian smiled bitterly, but didn't say anything. Even if he was seen as a coward, there was nothing he could do.
He wasn't worried that he would be infected, and he didn't think that his luck was bad enough to become the 1% that the vaccine would be ineffective. In fact, he was thinking about the stray cat that had infected the Siamese cat with rabies.
The pet shop was very close to the pet clinic. Seeing that he was almost there, his phone rang.
Zhao Qi sent a message, saying that they were already at the health and epidemic prevention station. The doctor recommended that Liu Wenying get a shot of some kind of globulin. She and Liu Wenying were at a loss. They didn't know if they should get the shot or not, and asked him to reply as soon as possible.
He stopped to reply the message. First, he sent the word "get shot." Then, he edited a second message and sent it out. He told her that this globulin was also called a rabies passive immune agent. It was specially used for people who had been seriously bitten by a sick cat or dog, or people who hadn't been injected with the vaccine in time after being bitten. It directly injected the virus antibodies into the body. It took effect quickly, but the duration of the effect was short. It was just to urgently stop the spread of the virus in the body.
"Is the woman okay?" Fei Na asked.
"She should be fine." Zhang Zian put his phone back into his pocket. "Her skin doesn't seem to have been scratched, and she looks relatively healthy. The probability of infection is not high. The vaccine is just a precaution."
As they spoke, they arrived at the entrance of the pet clinic.
Pushing the door open, Shi Shi was sitting in the waiting area, happily playing with her phone. She raised her head and saw him. "Why are you here? You don't care about your shop anymore? "
"I have something to do. You can go back now," Zhang Zian said. "But Zhao Qi is not in the shop now. She accompanied Liu Wenying to the health and epidemic prevention station. I guess your dinner tonight is going to be cold."
"What!" Shi Shi ignored the previous words and jumped up. "Qi Qi lied to me again! For her dinner, I just turned down Liu Sanlang's invitation to watch a movie with me! "
"It's okay. You just have to say the word. Liu Sanlang definitely won't mind." Zhang Zian looked around the clinic and saw that there were two people waiting in front of Shi Shi and another person waiting behind her.
"Hmph! Of course I know! It's just a pity that I can't post the movie on WeChat. It's better to post pictures of delicious food! "Shi Shi muttered, picked up her handbag, and quickly rushed out of the clinic.
