I got bitten by a rat at work about 27 days ago and accidentally scratched the wound too. I did wash it with water right away. My tetanus shot is up-to-date, but I never got any antirabies shots. Now the wound's healed completely. Do I need to do anything more about this?

I recently had a brief encounter with a sex worker and made sure to use a condom, but now Im really anxious about the risk of getting HIV. Ive been reading up a lot online, and to be honest, it's making me pretty scared and down. The thing is, the encounter was really short, like about 2 minutes, and I didnt feel much. While removing the condom, I think I mightve done it wrong by pulling it from the base up. When I checked afterward, my penis was dry and there wasnt any noticeable liquid on my hands. Im worriedcould I still be at risk for HIV?

The risk of HIV transmission in this scenario is low, especially since you used a condom. However, to further reduce the risk, you can consider taking Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) within 72 hours of the exposure. PEP involves taking a combination of antiretroviral drugs for 28 days. I recommend you consult a healthcare provider for a proper assessment and prescription of PEP.
