A member asked:

I got bitten by a dog about 3 weeks ago. i have completed 3 of 4 vaccines already and i am about to take the last one tomorrow. what worries me is that i drank a whole glass of whiskey the other night. will the alcohol disrupt and ruin the effects?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not so: I wouldn't worry about it. Social drinking does not disrupt the human immune system significantly.
