Way to check the rabies vaccine worked?
I got bit by a Stray cat 6 days ago ( very minor. Just 2-4 drops of blood came only from one dot)
Day 0 i got a TT injection + Rabivax S
Day 3 another Rabivax S
The issue is Rabivax S was administered in the gluteal area.
I have had no fever or anything.
- I took a paid consultancy on practo. He said take all 5 again.
-But my other doctor said continue rest 3 on deltoid.
Please help me. I'm confused about these things.
1. Should I take all 5 again from day 0 or just 3?
2. Should I take it today itself (day 6)?
3. Which is the exact test to check if the vaccine worked. And when can I take the test?
Thank you
