Question

Hey, I had a question about Rabipur injections. So basically, I got 5 shots of it around 14 years ago. I'm wondering if I need to get a booster dose now, and if it's something that lasts for life. Also, how many doses are we usually supposed to get anyway? Appreciate any advice!

I'm really worried because my father-in-law just tested positive for COVID-19. His report says "RESULTS Positive" but there's also something called "Bio Ref Interval" that shows as "Negative." Can you help me understand what that means? Is this related to a stage of COVID-19, or does it indicate something else?

Question

I'm really worried about my HIV status. I had unprotected sex about a year ago and did a screening test for HIV 1 and 2 antibodies, which came back non-reactive at 0.1. I recently took the HIV 1, 2, and p24 combo test again and got the same non-reactive 0.1 result. Should I be concerned, or can I trust these results?
