Query regarding vaccine and immunity

2025-09-04 10:10:11
Hello Doctor, This year, due to repeated suspected exposures, I have already taken 17 rabies vaccine doses. My concern is: Will taking so many doses in a short period make my B cells and T cells weaker against rabies virus for long time ? Or will these repeated doses help in building strong long-term immune memory and safety against rabies? Only I want to know that I am safe for long time against rabies or not...????? Kindly guide.

Why you are putting same question again and again As recommended earlier it doesn't cause any harm nor benefit but better to take a physician advice before taking booster shots and not by yourself
