Doctors said that the girl lost her life because she was unaware of this terrible disease through the dog bite. Lakshmana was bitten by a dog about a month ago. She suffered a head injury in the attack. However the girl did not tell anyone at home about the incident.  Three days ago, there was a sudden change in Lakshmana’s behavior. She started behaving abnormally like barking like a dog. The worried family members immediately rushed the girl to the hospital as the situation got out of hand. As it was already too late, the doctors confirmed that the girl was completely rabid. Lakshmana died while undergoing treatment. Doctors have alerted the public in the wake of this tragic incident. Even if a dog bite appears to be a minor injury, it can lead to a fatal disease like rabies. As soon as a dog bites, whether it is a pet dog or a stray dog, doctors strongly advise taking the rabies vaccine without any delay. Since there is a risk that young children may hide a dog bite without the knowledge of family members, parents are urged to be vigilant in this regard and educate children about the dangers of rabies. Doctors have clarified that rabies can be prevented if proper treatment is taken on time.
