EVENTHOUGH THE VALIDITY OF RABIES VACCINE IS SAID AS 3 YEARS ---WE RECOMMEND MORE SUSCEPTIBLE PEOPLE LIKE VETERNARY WORKERS TO HAVE BOOSTER EVERY YEAR. MORE OVER THE CHANCE OF CENT PERCENT MORTALITY OF RABIES AND THE OPERATIONAL CHANCES LIKE SOME ONE MAY HAVE KEPT THE VACCINE WE HAD FOR MORE TIME AT OUTSIDE COLD CHAIN ETC AND THE FACT THAT THE VIRUS FROM A SMALL RABIS INFECTED CAT IS EQUALLY DANGEROUS AS FROM A BIG DOG TEMPTS ME TO ADVICE YOU TO TAKE BOOSTER DOSES WHEN EVER YOU GET FURTHER EXPOSURE ---AS THIS VACCINE IS VERY SAFE.
