Hello, if one has taken 2 booster ARVs (0,3), 3 months, 2 weeks back (last ARV on 28/07/22) and if now there is a rat bite 3 days back, do I need to take 2 ARVs again on (0,3)? Will 2 ARVs be sufficient or do I need 3 ARVs to be safe

Should ideally take 3 ARVs for safer side as you didn't complete the dose back then however we don't know how much immunity you've for the disorder till now. So 2 might work too 😂 its a rather confusing situation. But would recommend 3 ARVs as the ideal dose, however rats can cause other conditions too like rat bite fever and all. If I were I'd think about those first my friend
