‣ Dog bites and scratches require immediate medical attention.
‣ Unusual vocalizations, including "barking-like" sounds, can occur in severe cases. 🗣️
‣ If bitten by an animal, seek medical attention immediately and don't rely on online myths.

Sweetheart, we completely understand your concern for our furry friends' well-being! It's beautiful to see how much you care about their health and happiness. However, we want to gently share some information with you that might change your perspective on rabies vaccines.

Rabies is a very real and deadly disease that affects not just animals, but humans too. It's a viral disease that can be transmitted through the saliva of infected animals, usually through a bite. Once symptoms appear, it's almost always fatal, often leading to death.

But here's the amazing part: anti-rabies vaccines are incredibly effective in preventing the spread of rabies! By vaccinating our animals, we're not only protecting them, but also our families, communities, and ourselves.

I understand your concerns about vaccine safety, but the science is clear: vaccines are rigorously tested and proven to be safe and effective. The benefits of vaccination far outweigh the risks.

Imagine a world where rabies is a thing of the past! Let's join forces to make that a reality. The World Health Organization (WHO) has set a goal to eradicate dog- mediated rabies by 2030, but why stop there? Let's aim to eradicate all forms of rabies by 2050 and make it a global effort!

Our dogs deserve to live long, happy, and healthy lives, and we can make that happen by working together. Vaccination is a crucial step in protecting our furry friends and our communities.

Let's spread love, kindness, and awareness instead of misinformation. Together, we can create a rabies-free world where our dogs can thrive!

@FelicitousBS @juliedonuts Hi @FelicitousBS, the risk is never worth taking no matter what. Please kindly do what is needed by making anti-rabies schedule for your pets at leasts every 1-2 years.

Hey, hold up! I get that grocery prices are biting (pun intended), but let's not go barking mad just yet! Rabies might seem like a drastic solution, but trust me, it's not worth risking your life (or your taste buds) over.

Instead, let's pause for a moment and explore some affordable options for groceries and pet care. I've got some good resources to share with you!

Stay safe, stay healthy, and let's keep our communities rabies-free!

Trump cutting funds to PEPFAR, what does it mean?

Nigeria has the world's second highest number of people living with HIV.

If you don't treat HIV, almost everyone affected will develop AIDS.

To treat HIV, they need ART drugs and these drugs have become so effective that a HIV positive person can no longer transmit the virus if the level of the virus is suppressed.

These drugs are expensive, so a lot of the drugs available are donated to us.

Now that donation has been cut, what does this mean?

If Nigeria doesn't rise to the occasion and take charge:

1. Infections will rise, currently it's close to 200000 infections every year

2. People will die from AIDS, drugs are not available.

3. Our already burdened healthcare system will be burdened further which might be make or break.

These are just a snippet of the ripple effect. Let's not forget that diseases like tuberculosis and malaria are being affected also by the pause of funding.

Now is the time to take our health system seriously, the second best time was yesterday.

Nigeria can not continue to depend on donations for its own healthcare.

⚠️ Spotting the signs of rabies in dogs ⚠️

Rabies is fatal, but early recognition can save lives.

If you suspect a dog has rabies, keep your distance and contact the local authorities immediately.

Educating ourselves is the first step to protecting both people and animals.
