Regarding Rabies immunity
Do immunity from three (0th, 3rd & 7th day) ARV vaccine lasts more than 1.5 years? I took very first three shots on May - 2020.
My vaccination schedule is as follows - 0th, 3rd and 7th day on May - 2020 Booster dose - 21st January 2021 and 25 February 2021, and again on 15 December 2021,18th February 2022.
On 13th December 2021 I got nail scratch from my dog and he keeps interacting with other stray dogs. I went to the clinic and then she gave me rabies booster dose on 15th December 2021. I think I have told that doctor that I have took shots in May 2021 but actually I took them in May 2020.
Will my immunity last about 1.5 years for rabies considering my vaccination schedule? OR Again should I take three Rabies shots to develop required immunity? I think I should take three shots now. I have OCD from past 7 years and this rabies fear is worsening it. Please tell me!
