"The patient was admitted to the hospital at 11 p.m. on Thursday and died at 8.30 on Friday morning, but we have yet to decide whether he was rabies-positive," Gustavianof stated.
He said Kaman died moments after he was removed from the hospital's isolation room to Padma room.
According to Gustavianof, the patient was first admitted to a hospital in Agam district after being bitten by a dog and was later transferred to M Djamil Hospital in Padang.
"The patient was in a critical condition when he arrived here last night," he explained.
Gustavianof said that, based on the information from the patient's family, Kaman was bitten by a dog a few days ago but he did not immediately go to a nearby clinic to get anti-rabies injection.(IGT/T007)
