2 Senior Citizens Killed by Stray Dog Bites in Lahore

Two elderly residents of Lahore have succumbed to rabies after being bitten by stray dogs, according to reports. Nasreen Bibi, a 60-year-old woman, passed away at Mayo Hospital after being bitten by a stray dog approximately two months ago. She exhibited symptoms of rabies and was admitted to the hospital's isolation ward, where she died during treatment.

Ghaus Muhammad, a 90-year-old man, received treatment at Mayo Hospital for several days following a dog bite. Doctors confirmed that he contracted rabies, and his family took him home where he later died. It is not clear if either patient received anti-rabies vaccination following the bites, nor is it specified when Ghaus Muhammad was bitten or why his family opted to take him home after the diagnosis. The source does not clarify whether the dog involved in Ghaus Muhammad's case was also a stray.
