Rabies fear
Hi doctors ,
I'm from chennai
I recently got a parcel from Uttar pradesh
The package i received was pretty wet I asked the delivery guy what happened he didn't know ...when I inspected the parcel some droplets fell on my shirt ...
After roughly 3 hours i got an injury on my head I rubbed it after mistakenly touching my shirt .
What is the probability of that parcel containing the rabid saliva ? That could have got onto my shirt survived another 3 hours and me touching it and infecting my head wound ...
I think Uttar Pradesh is high of rabies dog cases...
I got my vaccination 14 months before in 2023 ... Am I safe ?
Do I need to take another booster dose ?
Or Am I overthinking due to rabies anxiety ?
