Asked for male, 50 years old from Gorakhpur

I took 5 doses of anti rabies vaccine in october, 2021 (rabivax s). And had taken 2 booster doses (chirorab) in august, 2023. I was standing under a tree, when two groups of monkeys all of a sudden came and started fighting. I felt a drop fall in my right eye. I got scared that it might be saliva and took 3 boosters on 0,3,8 (3rd dose delayed by a day). While bringing vaccine from shop to clinic (15 mins) I kept vaccine pack (chirorab) in pocket of my jacket. Could it be destroyed by sunlight falling on jacket while riding scooter? Do I need to take more vaccines? Please help.

No, vaccine r advice to take in ice bag but when antibody test done no variation seen. So don't worry.
U don't need any further vaccine.

My car was parked outside the house and afterwards I have seen that monkeys have made it dirty and eaten bread over it. Does touching car handles etc and afterwards touching face or eating food items without washing hands poses risk for rabies infection?

As per your diagnosis is OCD , u may not convinced but it is possible. use of senetizer for you after handling car parts is sufficient.

A rabies antibody level of greater than or equal to 0.5 iu/ml demonstrates an adequate response to vaccination.

Asked for female, 17 years old from Bangalore

So on september this year my dog bit me and the wound was less then an inch but it bleed so the doctor gave me a tetanus injection and one does of anti rabies injection. One month after that my dog again bit me accidentally and the wound was again less then an inch but it did not bleed this time so I did not get an injection as I had got last month. So do I have the risk of rabies or not?

Full course of rabies vaccine is of 5 injections. If you have taken all the five, then you need not worry. Otherwise have full course of vaccine for complete protection.

Asked for male, 21 years old from Thane

I had taken rabies vaccines two weeks ago. And I am worried that my last shot won't work cause after taking the injection, I immediately went out in the sunlight for about an hour. Can sunlight and heat reduce the effectiveness of the vaccine after its injected into the arm? I am not worried about the earlier shots as they were taken during night time, only the last one was taken during afternoon. I think it is most probably my health anxiety making me worried but still I would really appreciate some doctor's opinions please.

Health Query

Had an extra shot of rabies vaccine. I had a suspected dog scratch on my hand and so for that I consulted a doctor and he decided to give me 5 booster shots on days 0,3,7,14 and 28. I told him that I had taken 5 shots a year ago still he told me to take 5 shots instead of 2 and I agreed. Then after 3 shots, on the day of 4th injection, doctor's office was closed so I decided to go to the govt. Hospital and took 4th injection from there but then on the next day, I was skeptical about the effectiveness of the shot I took from govt. Hospital so I took another shot from the same doctor only. I told him that I had an extra shot yesterday, he said that it won't harm me but it was unnecessary. Please advise me. Is one extra dose going to cancel the effectiveness of earlier vaccines?

It is not going to harm you most likely. No, it will not affect the effectiveness of the previous one.
