You’ve already completed a full rabies vaccination course including ERIG in December 2024, which gives long-term immunity. Since the new scratch occurred within 1 year, the recommended 2 booster doses (Day 0 and Day 3) are enough for complete protection — no need to repeat the entire course or ERIG again.
Make sure to:
Clean the scratch thoroughly with soap and running water for 15 minutes.
Apply antiseptic (povidone-iodine).
Complete your Day 3 booster without delay.
Keep the area under observation for any infection signs (pain, swelling, redness, pus).
