Anti Rabies

2019-02-20 12:13:59
I had my anti rabies post exposure two doses on 5th Feb 2019 and 8th Feb 2019. For how long does it provide protection? I already had a 5 dose schedule complete before. Is it necessary to have another two doses after every exposure or if the exposure in within 90 days from the previous vaccine, it is not required?
