不少爱犬人士都应该会喜欢被狗狗舔,因为这是它们表达爱的方式。然而狗狗的唾液中会有一些对人体有害的病菌。
Many dog-lovers might enjoy being licked by their dogs as this is a way to show their affection. However, some bacteria in dogs’ saliva may be very harmful to the human body.
一位63岁的德国男子于本周三(11月27日)病逝,原因竟然是在无伤口的情况下,就被狗狗唾液中的“犬咬二氧化碳嗜纤维菌”所感染,出现了皮肤坏死、高烧不断的反应,最终与世长辞。
A 63-year-old German man passed away this Wednesday (Nov 27). His cause of death is infection by a bacteria in his dogs’ saliva called ‘C. Carimorsus’ even when he did not have any open wound. He then passed away after persistent high fever and skin necrosis.
虽然感染该菌种并致命的可能性极其低,狗主人们还是要多加注意自己和狗狗的卫生健康啊!
Although the chance of being infected with this particular bacteria is very low, dog-owners must be more cautious about the health and hygiene of you and your puppies!
