Dear user, that will not have any effect on the efficacy of the vaccine. As long as the doses are taken correctly, there will no be any problem in terms of the vaccine's efficacy. You can consult me for more doubts regarding this online by clicking on my photo and booking an appointment however, if you found my answer helpful, please leave a positive feedback as it helps me with my practice. Thank you.

The rabies vaccine effect lasts for 5 years Immunity following a course of doses is typically long lasting. Additional doses are not typically needed except in those at very high risk. Following administration of a booster dose, one study found 97% of immunocompetent individuals demonstrate protective levels of neutralizing antibodies at 10 years.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
If you have not yet received the vaccine and were exposed to the rabies virus, you will need a total of 5 doses on 5 different days within a 1-month period. You will also receive a shot of rabies immune globulin.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

There is no need for vaccination after you have got jaundice once as it gives immunity just like the vaccination.

Hello lybrate-user, some babies fail to develope scar after bcg vaccination esp. When given immediately after birth, but that does not mean that, she has not developed immunity, so no need to repeat vaccine.
