Rabbies query
I have never got dog bite from street dog but I guess I have come in close contact with them.like I used to touch them and feed them. 5 months ago street dog tried to bite me but I didn't got any bite and I guess if I had any tear in skin already present so it would have allowed rabies to enter from his saliva.3-4 years ago I saw a dead rabid dog I didn't touch him but I was close to him.i touched dog and don't know whether they had rabbies present in there skin and I didn't washed my hand and eat food like that. 8 months ago by mistake I ate dog meat as the restaurant secretly added it in there momos and I ate that . So from any of these incidents do I need arv vaccine and immunoglobulin???
