Covid vaccination with rabies vaccine

2021-09-25 08:48:15
I need to get the second dose of the Covid vaccine (Covishield)today. However, I was recently bitten by a dog and receiving anti rabies shots. Today I need to get the second dose of the anti rabies vaccine also. Can I take both the vaccines today? Please advise.
