Can vaccinated pets carry rabies? | Health Wealth S2 Ep 23
Do people actually start barking when they get rabies? Why do you need to take all doses on time for the rabies vaccine? And is “The dog looked friendly” a medical plan, or a plot twist?
Join me and Dr Kritika Sharma, emergency medicine specialist at Regency Health Hospital, Gorakhpur, as we get practical about animal bites—what to do in the first minutes, what not to do, and why speed saves lives. We walk through real-world first aid (immediate, thorough washing with soap and water; quick medical assessment), then tackle the hard truth: once rabies symptoms appear, outcomes are almost always tragic—yet the disease is preventable with timely post-exposure vaccination.
We bust the “home-remedy” circus—chilli paste, black stones, oils, and positive vibes—and explain how these delays cost precious hours. We also break down when rabies immunoglobulin is crucial, how it’s infiltrated in and around high-risk wounds, and why completing the vaccine schedule matters even if the bite looks small. Clear steps, no fluff, and answers to the questions you’re too scared to Google.
Tune in!
