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.
