[THE SKIN DOCTOR @theskindoctor13]

FAQs on Rabies:

1. Once developed, rabies is 100% fatal.

2. Which animals can transmit it: Any warm-blooded animal. Dogs are the most common source. But cats, monkeys, bats, camels, and even pigs can also transmit it.

3. Mode of transmission: Bite; lick on broken skin or mucosa (like eyes, nose, or mouth); scratches if the claws are contaminated with saliva; or saliva splashing into the eyes or mouth.

4. Incubation: Rabies symptoms usually appear in 1 to 3 months but can show up as early as a few days or as late as a year, depending on the bite site and virus load. Once symptoms start, it's too late.

5. What to do immediately after a bite, scratch, or lick: Wash the wound with soap and running water for 15 minutes. Then apply an antiseptic like betadine. This step alone can greatly reduce the chance of infection.

6. When to see a doctor: As soon as possible.

7. What if the animal is vaccinated: It doesn't matter. Vaccination is good and reduces the risk but doesn’t eliminate it completely, especially when pet vaccination in India is not uniformly regulated

8. Vaccination, immunoglobulin, or both: For academic interest only :

Category I (licks on intact skin, animal sniffing, contact without bite/scratch) generally requires nothing except washing.

Category II (nibbling, minor scratches without bleeding) requires vaccination.

Category III (deep bites, multiple wounds, licking on broken skin, or bites on head/face/genitals) requires both vaccination and immunoglobulin.

BUT YOU DON’T DECIDE WHICH CATEGORY YOU FALL UNDER OR WHAT TREATMENT YOU NEED. EVEN CATEGORY I EXPOSURE SHOULD BE SHOWN TO A DOCTOR. LET YOUR DOCTOR, AND NOT YOU, DECIDE WHAT’S BEST FOR YOU.

9. Specially for parents: Kids may downplay licks and minor scratches as harmless. So, educate them. Explain the risks and emphasize that they should never hide any contact with dogs from you.

The biggest challenge in chronic care is ensuring that patients continue their medication.

It's extremely frustrating to aee patients discontinue medication for diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol.. because they did not want to get "addicted" and were scared of "side effects" (even though they have none).

Ask your doctor if you have doubts. Don't stop medication on your own. Avoid getting into trouble.

@kunalb11 True. Though 4) Public benefit missions are tricky too as the yardsticks are conventional and the investors are not custodians of the outcome. However there will be passionate founders who will persevere to eventually make it an investable idea.

@hormndoc And sir, this is just the start. Imagine this capability (more advanced) in a humanoid robot (with more human like than robot like features) in couple of years. The world we know would change more dramatically in next 10 years than the last 100 years.

@manasjsaloi Sure it requires herculean effort & it is a fantastic business model which generates employment too. However glorifying solving for procrastination & enabling unhealthy lifestyle at scale isn’t something any serious country would talk as a meaningful achievement or innovation.

@foodpharmer2 And this scenario is for all disease segments. Despite so much advancements in recent decades, the epidemic seems to be growing. Hence at docfliq our mission of making health education accessible is a slow and steady journey to fix issues structurally.
