I got a series of 5 rabies shots about a month back, and it was the Abhayrab brand. Recently, I got scratched by a dog again, so I decided to get 3 booster doses instead of the usual 2. I'm really anxious about whether having so many vaccines could cause any serious side effects. Could you please advise? I'm worried and need some guidance.

View allI'm really worried about my friend. They had some kind of oral exposure about 5 months ago, and when they got tested at 3 months, they were negative for both HSV 1 and 2, both igm and igg.

So, I got this tattoo and I'm worried about the risk of infection. I went for an HIV test on the 12th day after exposure, using the HIV 12 ELISA method, and the result was negative, with a score of 0.415 SCo. Then, on the 32nd day, I took an HIV test again, which was the HIV 12 p24 Combo test with CMIA, and it came back non-reactive at 0.1. How confident can I be in these results?
-Based on the negative results from both the HIV 12 ELISA test (day 12) and the HIV 12 & p24 Combo test (day 32), it's very unlikely that you have HIV. These tests are highly accurate, especially after the 4-week mark. Trusting these results gives you a
