Tt vaccine dilemma
A dog bit me yesterday, can I take anti tetanus and anti rabies vaccine. The main issue is I took Covid vaccine day before yesterday.
I have received conflicting suggestions some advicing don't take atleast for 15 days and some take atleast anti tetanus vaccine. As rabies is more dangerous like corona, shall I take anti rabies and anti tetanus now or shall I wait for 15 days from covid vaccine.
Please clarify this dilemma.

Hello sir,
According to my opinion you should take the vaccine because it may cause damage to your body if the dog was infected, and the anti rabies vaccine will have 3 sittings, so it might not affect the covid vaccine which you have already taken, just make sure that you take more precautions then usual.. and take some immunity boosters as well..!
Next Steps
Should take the anti rabies vaccine
