Kissing ok >2 weeks: ARV induces the production of protective virus-neutralizing antibodies within approximately 7 to 10 days that persist for several years No transmission of rabies has been documented from rabies-infected patients to healthcare providers or household contacts or by fomites or environmental surfaces
