Rabies PEP lene ke baad blood donation se aapki immunity par koi significant effect nahi padta. Lekin blood donation guidelines ke according, recent vaccination ke baad usually temporary deferral (approx 3 months) advise kiya jata hai for safety. Isliye abhi kuch time wait karna better hai, uske baad aap safely donate kar sakte hain. Agar exact dates share karein to aur precise guidance diya ja sakta hai.
