Good evening.
Next Steps
Here’s what to do: If your last full vaccination was within the past 3 months, only proper wound washing is enough — no booster needed.
Health Tips
Take care and kindly avoid stray, sickly, or overly friendly wild animals and unknown pets. If an animal acts unusually aggressive or strangely tame, consider it a serious risk.
