I'm really worried right now. My mother-in-law recently passed away due to a cardiac arrest, but after her death, we found out she was COVID positive. I'm not sure what I need to do next or what precautions I should take to protect myself and my family. Any advice would really help.

Monitor yourself and others in your family for any symptoms of COVID-19,If you start developing symptoms, it is important to get a COVID test as soon as possible and please follow common precautions of covid 19

Is it possible to catch rabies from a 1-month-old puppy that hasn't had its shots yet, just through playful bites and licking? There aren't any bite marks or wounds, but I'm wondering if rabies can be transmitted without any bleeding involved.

my close family member has spinal TB affecting the L4 and L5 discs and is getting treated with surgery and a 9-month medication course - can this disease spread to others at home or is it contagious

Spinal tuberculosis, or Pott's disease, is generally not directly contagious in the way that pulmonary TB is. The infection typically spreads through the bloodstream from a primary infection, often in the lungs, to the bones and discs in the spine.
