  3. Rabies PEP. The vaccine will not work?

Rabies PEP

2017-08-25 17:22:35
II have been vaccinated against rabies and recently had potential exposure to a bat. I received two boosters as rabies PEP on Day 0 and Day 3. Day 0 was given in the back of my arm in tricep area. Is this considered incorrect and thus the vaccine will not work? Day 3 was given in the upper arm.
