How often do vets get anti rabies shots?

Question

Asked for Female, 20 Years

Considering that vets get bitten and scratched so often, do they take a booster dose after each accident? How many vaccines in a year? Or do they take just one shot and the next shot next year - between this period all bites are taken care of ?
