A member asked:

Is it safe to smoke marijuana while taking rabies vaccination ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Confusing question: I don't think it is safe to smoke marijuana at any time, specifically in texas where they can confiscate your vehicle if they find it and toss you in jail.It does not effect the Rabies Vaccine issue.

Indoor cat that was not vaccinated escaped for 2 days. Gave rabies vax immediately but how long do we have to worry about not touching his saliva? Says that incubation can be a year but that vax reaches full effect in a month so when are we safe?

Is it safe to say that if saliva on an object or animal fur is dry, the rabies virus is no longer transmit-able? Fully vaccinated cat went outside for an hour and came directly inside and rubbed on a freshly opened wound on my face. Concern?
