A street dog had placed a ball in its mouth. One month (30 Days) later, I touched and played with the same ball. Without washing my hands afterward, I consumed food (oral ingestion). My questions are as follows: a) Is rabies vaccination required in this case? b) For how long and maximum can the rabies virus survive on surfaces? c) Can rabies be transmitted through oral ingestion, such as eating contaminated food? d) What is the appropriate response if a dog licks intact (unbroken) skin? e) Should indirect exposure scenarios like this be considered a rabies risk? f) Is it possible to contract rabies from environmental sources—for example, by touching a contaminated object and then eating without washing hands?
