"the immunity induced by a full course tissue culture vaccine persists for 3-5 years in a normal healthy person. Any re-exposure during this period shall necessitate administration of two boosters spaced a week apart. Or 0 and 3 (ijcp). No anti-rabies serum is indicated (immunoglobuline) up to five years following full dose primary immunisation. However consult a qualified doctor personally in such events. Sometimes in rabies, it is safer to over treat than under treat.

Protection (after rabies vaccination) is tested in laboratory by virus neutralising antibody (rvna) titre which should be 5 iu/ml of serum in the vaccinated person, which is considered protective. If titre is found lower, booster dose of tissue culture vaccine is given. There are only 5 centres where this test is done. One is at nicd - delhi. Your query and response are more academic. Always consult proper physician for clarification.
