A member asked:
In theory if i had a full series of rabies vaccine 2 months ago and i am bitten again,would i be protected from the virus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be: Published guidelines suggest someone that has completed the full initial series will have protective antibody levels for at least 2 years. Those in occupations at higher risk have antibody titers checked at 6 month intervals and boosters given if any decline in protection is noted
