Rabies Vaccination
In our country where a lot of people injecting vaccines specially village doctor and compounder don't differentiate between the injection type of intramuscular and subcutaneous, What would be the immunogenicity of the Abhayrab rabies vaccine (IM/ID) by IIL, if it is by mistake injected by the village doctor subcutaneously instead of intramuscular, will the vaccine be still effective? Will this injection cause any problem?
Again Sir/Mam once a BMS doctor told me that these vaccines could even cause rabies disease in a person instead of preventing it. Is this statement true?
