Solution

The correct option is A True
When there is a dog bite, there is a high risk of infection through the blood. So if we wash the wound with a solution of potassium permanganate or other antiseptic, the chances of getting infected reduces and it is also advised to take an injection of the anti-rabies vaccine immediately after the bite.
