Hello welcome to the health care magic

For rabies if you have taken complete vaccination schedule than chance of rabies less.

If clinical symptoms suggest towards rabies than from saliva virus isolation by RT PCR can be done.

Skin biopsy from nape of neck also beneficial.

Hope this will help you
