No: No, you will not pass live rabies to someone after receiving a vaccine, even if you kiss that person, or even bite that person!

No: Rabies can only be transmitted through the saliva of an infected animal. The rabies vaccine will not make you infected nor will it make you a carrier that may pass the disease on to others.
