Enquiry about rabbies vaccine
I'm from Delhi, and a dog scratched me a minor scratch on my leg. I had taken the tetanus vaccine a month ago, and the doctor said it's effective for 6 months. Initially, I received the first dose in two shots on September 24th without the tetanus vaccine. Then, I took the second dose on September 28th, but the doctor mentioned the dates as September 24th, 27th, October 1st, and October 22nd. I realized I took the second dose on the 28th instead of the 27th. Now, I'm in Mangalore and worried. Is there a good hospital in Vitla, Mangalore? Should I consider further vaccinations or undergo an immunity test like the Rapid Fluorescent Focus Inhibition Test? Please advise; I'm concerned.
