00:53 It is not said that rabies can spread to other animals.

00:57 You need a rabid dog or a cat to transfer the virus.

01:01 And by the other animal, you transfer it.

01:07 It comes from the dog or cat.

01:09 According to the Department of Agriculture,

01:11 there is no record of a person who got rabies because of eating infected animals.

01:18 The Department of Health said that it's rare for rabies to be transmitted from eating.

01:23 The virus does not live when the animal is dead.

01:29 It's only possible if you cooked the brain and the virus is there.

01:42 The recommendation is to get vaccinated to be sure.

01:46 The Department of Agriculture does not lie about eating infected meat.

01:51 There is a possibility that the infected animal can be transferred when eaten.

01:56 That's why we're very careful in NMIS on removing pork and cattle.

02:02 You need to go to NMIS if you're going to buy pork or cattle.
