Rabies risk indirect exposure

2026-02-02 04:16:22
Hello Doctor, Does rabies indirect exposure need to worry!! If we have cuts in hand and touch any thing outside. Like door knobs, chairs, other inanimate objects in medical where many patients are coming for ARV. Also i washed my rabies contaminated clothes in washing machine. Does the machine contaminated now ? Does virus are still in machine. If we wash other clothes does it safe to use now ? Please answer!!
