Query regarding rabies virus

2017-02-20 18:37:59
Hi...I have query regarding rabies. A street dog licked my foot today. After 2 hrs I washed my feet under the running tap. Again after 2 hrs I washed my feet under running tap. Then after 1 hour of my last wash my son while playing licked my feet just for a second or so...i.e after almost 5 hrs of dog licking my feet. Is there chance that my son may be affected by virus?
