Is Delay In Taking The Third Dosage Of Anti Rabies Vaccine Post A Dogbite A Concern?
Hello Sir, A Dog of my colony bite me on 28th October I have scratches of teeth. I wash my wound a long time with soap, liquid dettol and running water. Doctor made my vaccines schedule 28th, 31st, 4th November and 25 November. On my vaccine scheduled slip Doctor wrote Dog bite III. I get vaccines from day 0(28th) and 31st now the next was 4th Nov but I could not understand doctor writing I missed that vaccine and I reached on 7th November he asked me whether dog is alive or not I sad the dog is alive then he said you no need of vaccine please come on 25th Nov. But I was much worried I got 3rd vaccine on 8th Nov from a private doctor. My 3rd vaccine is 4 days late. Tell me i need to worry.
