Notes

1 FAQ's: (1) I was bitten, unprovoked, in the thigh by a street dog outside of the National Library, (2) The dog was never tested so it's not 100% sure he/she had rabies but I did receive treatment for rabies, (3) You no longer get rabies shots in the stomach but rather in the thigh, and (4) I'm absolutely fine.

2 These issues are by no way confined to South Asia and I realize this is a sensitive topic, but I do feel the need to be honest about my personal experiences and fears here.
