I've got a question about the rabies vaccine. So, I had the full rabipur course back in November and December 2019. But then I got exposed again in February 2020 from a dog lick and took booster dosesone on February 4th, another on February 28th, then March 28th, and the last one on April 27th. Now, I'm worried about how long I'm actually protected. If I have another incident like a bite or a lick in the future, what should I do? Can you give me some guidance on this?

I'm trying to understand my Widal test report and I'm pretty worried. It mentions Salmonella typhi O and H at 180 dilutions and Salmonella paratyphi AH and Bh at 1160 dilutions. Is this an indication of a typhoid infection? Could you explain what this means for my health? Also, I'm curious about what kind of diet I should be following right now. Your advice would be really helpful.

Hey, so about 12 weeks ago, I had a lip kiss with a prostitute, and now I'm really worried about HIV. I'm thinking about getting tested and I've heard about the combo test and maybe a Western Blot or an HIV PCR RNA test. Can you tell me which is the best option for someone in my situation?

I'm currently on ATT DOTS treatment and it's been about 3 months now. Earlier today, I got a rusty cut on my wrist and I'm really considering getting a Tetanus shot. I'm just not sure if it's safe to take the Tetanus injection while I'm on these ATT meds. I did have a Tetanus shot last year. What do you think?

you can, but inform your tetanus doctor that your taking ATT
