Bats, rabies booster
I took complete ARV of 5 shots in January 2021, I took 2 booster doses of rabies vaccination in August 2021 due to a dog scratch. Yesterday (25th September 2021) I think a bat dropped its saliva into my eyes directly(bats are common in my area) I have washed the area but do I need another booster dose??
Please advice,
Thanks
