Common Conditions

A stray dog (may be rabid) scratched a vaccinated dog(yearly vaccinated with nobivac rabies) and that street dog died after 20 days of the incident. we came to know about the incident 3 months after and asap we vaccinate our dog with raksharab vaccine 5 course. if he dont develope any symptoms after 1 month of 5 courses vaccination. what is his future chance of getting rabies due to previous exposure. he has no health isdue and 2.5 yrs old only.

How do vets protect themselves from unknown exposure ? At what frequency do they vaccinate to protect against exposure that go unnoticed while working ?

We went to a resort where there was a cat all the kids were playing including my son. Today I noticed the 1 scar on his hand is a small scratch. It's been 72 hours now will the vaccine work? what do i do now?

I was standing near a dog, and it seemed to be acting strangely, possibly choking or sneezing. I'm not entirely sure, but it was noticeable. Although its face wasn't directly towards me when it attempted to sneeze/choke, I have eczema on my leg, which might have open wounds. Could there be a risk of rabies transmission through the air if its saliva came into contact with my eczema while it was choking or sneezing? I'm worried about this and would appreciate an explanation. (I am not sure what was happening to that dog).

I wanted to ask a question regarding rabies vaccination as my sister is preparing for vet school . Should pre exposure be considered before started college ? How long does 5 dose course of vaccine protect for ? Will it protect against unknown exposure ?

There are some bald spots on my kitten's nose, is it abnormal or weird. I am really concerned for her.

My kitten is 2 month old , Male(0.9kg) , he has hair loss patch below his left ear and on his leg leg in total he has 3 spots of hair loss and it's rapidly increasing I've been putting betadine for 3 days now will he loose all his hair ?

If a dog is vaccinated with nobivac rabies vaccine which is properly cold chain maintained and the dog dont have any other health condition except fungal skin disease as he has tendecy to set it moist floor how much his immunity to fight against rabid animal scratch after 8month if vaccine.i know about titer test of rabies antigen but whats your experience says as a doctor?
