Explanation:
A post-exposure exam follows up occurs when a person has come in contact with an infectious agent and needs treatment. A post-exposure exam follow up shows what might have caused the infectious agent to infect the body, it tells how to avoid further contact with the infectious agent and shows the results which interpret the infection that occurred.
It also has a written opinion by the health care specialist about what will hopefully occur in the next 15 days of treatment.
