Rabies Vaccine Incomplete and exposure
I was bitten by a pet dog in September and I started PEP. However the dog remained healthy and it was also vaccinated. I stopped the PEP after 3 doses on Day 0-3-7.
Today i was scratched by a stray dog while i was travelling to a different city.
I had the 3 doses of vaccine in the month of September.
Do i need to get the whole PEP of 5 dose ?
