Source text - English Dog Bite Prevention
Approximately 4.5 million dog bites occur each year in the United States. Learn how to prevent dog bites and reduce the risk of illness and injury!
Who is most at risk for dog bites?
Children. The rate of dog-bite–related injuries is highest in children 5 to 9 years old. Children are more likely than adults to receive medical attention for dog bites. Senior citizens are the second most common dog bite victims.
Preventing Dog Bites:
Basic safety tips
Do:
• Remain motionless ("be still like a tree") when approached by an unfamiliar dog. Stay still and be calm.
• Avoid direct eye contact with unfamiliar dogs.
• Wait for the dog to pass
• If a dog knocks you over, curl into a ball with your head tucked and your hands over your ears and neck
• Immediately let an adult know about stray dogs or dogs that are behaving strangely.
Don't:
• Approach an unfamiliar dog.
• Run from a dog.
• Panic or make loud noises.
• Disturb a dog that is sleeping, eating, or caring for puppies.
• Pet a dog before asking its owner if it is okay.
• Pet a dog without allowing it to see and sniff you first.
• Encourage your dog to play aggressively.
• Let small children play with a dog unsupervised.
What if you get bitten or attacked by a dog?
• If possible, put your purse, bag, or jacket between you and the dog to protect yourself.
• If you are knocked down, curl into a ball with your head tucked in and your hands over your ears and neck.
• When you get to a safe place, immediately wash any wounds with soap and water.
• Seek medical attention; you may need antibiotics or other treatment.
• Be sure to seek medical care right away if:
• The wound is serious (uncontrolled bleeding, weakness, severe pain, muscle or bone exposure).
• The wound becomes red, painful, warm, or swollen, or you develop a fever.
• Although the risk is small, dogs can carry rabies. If you are bitten, contact your health care provider or Animal Control in your area.
• After you contact Animal Control, they will try to contact the owner and ensure the animal has a current rabies vaccination. This is important because the person who was bitten may need rabies preventive treatment.
What diseases can you get from dog bites?
Dog bites can not only cause injury but can also spread germs. Up to 18% of dog bites become infected. Over 60 different kinds of bacteria have been found in dog mouths, but only a small number of these germs can make you sick.
Rabies is one of the most serious diseases people can get from dog bites. Getting rabies from a dog in the United States is very rare. Rabies is a virus that affects the brain and can be fatal. The most common way rabies is spread is through the bite of an infected animal. The disease can be prevented by vaccinating dogs. In addition, people who are bitten by an animal with rabies should receive treatment immediately to prevent rabies.
Translation - Haitian-Creole Anpeche Chen Mòde
Apeprè 4.5 milyon ka chen mòde rive chak ane nan Etazini. Aprann kouman pou anpeche chen mòde epi diminye risk pou maladi ak blesi.
Ki moun ki pi nan risk pou chen mòde yo?
Timoun yo. Pousantaj blesi-ki gen pou wè ak chen mòde pi wo lakay timoun 5 a 9 lane. Timoun pi fasil resevwa swen medikal pou chen mòde ke granmoun. Granmoun aje yo se dezyèm gwoup ki pi victim chen mòde.
Anpeche Chen Mòde:
Konsèy sekirite preliminè
Sa pou fè:
• Rete san fè mouvman ("rete trankil tankou yon pye bwa") lè yon chen ou pa konnen pwoche sou ou. Pa fè mouvman epi rete dousman.
• Evite gade nan je yon chen ou pa konnen.
• Kanpe ba chen an pase.
• Si yon chen lage ou atè, fè kò ou won tankou yon boul ak tèt ou kache epi men ou sou zòrèy ak kou ou.
• Imedyatman, pale ak yon granmoun sou chen pèdi ak chen ki gen konpòtman dwòl.
Sa pou pa fè:
• Pwoche pre yon chen ou pa konnen.
• Kouri pou yon chen.
• Panike oubyen fè gwo bri.
• Anmède yon chen ki ap dòmi, ap manje, oubyen ki ap okipe pitit li yo.
• karese yon chen anvan ou mande mèt li pèmisyon.
• Karese yon chen san ou pa ba li tan pou li wè epi santi ou anvan.
• Ankouraje yon chen pou jwe yon fason agresif.
• Kite timoun piti jwe ak chen san sipèvizyon.
E si yon chen mòde oubyen atake ou?
• Si posib, mete bous, valiz oubyen levit ou ant oumenm ak chen an pou pwoteje tèt ou.
• Si chen an lage ou atè, fè kò ou won tankou yon boul ak tèt kache epi men ou sou zòrèy ak kou ou.
• Lè ou rive yon kote ki an sekirite, lave blesi a imedyatman ak savon ak dlo.
• Chache swen medikal; ou ka bezwen antibyotiks oubyen lòt tretman.
• Fè si ou chache swen medikal menm kote a si:
• Blesi a grav (ap senyen san rete, feblès, gwo doulè, miskilati ak zo ekspoze).
• Blesi a vin wouj, fè mal, cho, oubyen anfle, oubyen ou devlope yon lafyèv.
• Menm lè risk la pa gwo, chen ka gen maladi laraj. Si yon chen mòde ou, rele doktè ou oswa Kontwòl pou Zannimo.
• Apre ou fin kontakte Kontwòl pou Zannimo nan zòn lakay ou, yo pral kontakte mèt chen an pou asire yo chen an gen vaksinasyon kont laraj ki pa ekspire. Sa enpòtan paske moun chen an te mòde a gen dwa bezwen tretman prevantif kont laraj.
Ki maladi ou ka pran lè yon mòde ou?
Chen mòde ka lakòz pa sèlman blesi, men tou sa ka simaye mikwòb. Jiska 18% nan ka chen mòde vin enfekte. Yo jwenn plis pase 60 diferan kalite bakteri (mikwòb) nan bouch chen, men se sèlman yon ti kras nan yo ki ka fè ou malad.
Maladi laraj se yon nan maladi ki pi grav moun ka pran lè chen mòde yo. Li ra anpil pou moun pran maladi laraj nan chen nan Etazini. Laraj se yon viris ki afekte sèvo epi li ka vin mòtèl. Fason ki pi komen laraj simaye se lè yon bèt ki enfekte mòde yon moun. Nou ka anpeche maladi sa a lè nou vaksinen chen yo. An plis, moun yo yon bèt ki gen laraj mòde dwe jwenn tretman imedyatman pou anpeche laraj.
