Question

I've had all three of my rabies shots right on time, but I've missed the fourth one that was supposed to be on the 15th. It's now the 16th. Is it okay to get it on the 17th, or should I be worried?

Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections. Continue taking Dolo 650 to manage fever and symptoms. Consider adding: 1. Rest and hydration 2. Warm liquids (e.g., tea, soup) 3. Saline nasal drops (for congestion) 4. Cough syrup (if needed)

Question

I'm a bit worried because I've been bitten by a dog, and I'm not certain if the dog has been immunized. Should I consult a particular type of doctor in this situation? And is it possible to check if the dog is vaccinated for rabies before I need to get any shots myself?

Question

I'm really concerned about the type of mask I should be wearing in public. Is a surgical mask necessary, or is a simple cotton washable mask enough to protect against viruses? Also, does hand sanitizer really kill viruses effectively?

Question

I'm trying to understand these test results better. It says "Salmonella typhi O TO Reactive up to Titre 140" and "Salmonella typhi H TH Reactive up to Titre 1160." Then there's "Salmonella paratyphi A H AH Reactive up to Titre 180," but "Salmonella paratyphi B H BH Non Reactive." Should I be worried about these numbers? What's the difference between my typhi and paratyphi results? Any advice on what these mean for my health? I'm kind of concerned about what I should do next.
