disturbed by how little ppl acknowledge the secondary health risks of vampire bites. if your vampire lover is drinking your blood you MUST be up to date on your tetanus shot. puncture wounds are at especially high risk for tetanus infections. just because your partner was born in 1312 doesnât mean you have to die like it.
moreover they should be prepping the bite point with an alcohol wipe.
and while Iâm at it, Iâve noticed a blithe disregard for health & safety when it comes to blood pacts. canât believe I have to say this but you should absolutely NOT be cutting your palm open with the pocket knife from your belt holster (??????)
if youâre expecting to be in a blood pact/oath situation please just pick up some sterile finger lancets from the pharmacy. cannot stress this all enough.
Please yâall!! tetanus is NOT caused by rusty metal. Itâs a bacteria found damn near everywhere, and wounds infected with saliva are especially high risk for tetanus infections.
itâs also a common misconception that vampire saliva is antiseptic. Vampires spread that myth on purpose. They also CAN cross running water. Make them bathe and brush their teeth!!!!
all the vampires in the tags saying they wonât do this bc the alcohol will make the skin taste bad are just telling on themselves. talk about a red flag.
comparing your human loverâs body to an inanimate utensil & misreading this as a PSA for the vampireâs safety rather than the humanâs. smh vampires continue to be so toxic đ€ŠđŒââïž
