Bitten by dog
I have been bitten by dog, and I took covishield a day before,
today I have taken anti rabies vaccine and tetanus shot. Will there be harmful effect. Dog's teeth punctured my skin a little and blood was there, is immunoglobulin required? I will be administered with 4 more anti rabies shot.

If blood was there, you need to take immunoglobulin as well along with antirabies vaccine.
