I'm really worried because I had protected sex with a prostitute and during it, I noticed blood on the condom and my stomach. She mentioned she was on her period, but now I'm anxious about whether there's anything else I should be concerned about. This happened about 18 hours ago. Could you please help me understand if there's a risk for anything or anything I should do now?

I'm kind of worried about this rat bite I got on my toe a month back. It was a small wound, but it did bleed a bit. I saw a doctor, got a TT injection, and took antibiotics to avoid infection. They also suggested I get the Anti Rabies vaccine, but I haven't gotten it yet. Do you think it's necessary for me to take the Anti Rabies Vaccine at this point?
yes you need to take rabies vaccination

I'm really trying to understand what a "TARGET NOT DETECTED" result means from an HIV 1 RNA PCR quantitative test. It's been 7 weeks, and seeing that result has me a bit anxious. Does this mean the virus isn't there at all, or could it be something else?
That says you have no infection
