[|AI|]  Welcome to the ChatDoctorRabies is a vaccine-preventable viral disease which occurs in more than 150 countries and territories. Infection causes tens of thousands of deaths every year, mostly in Asia and Africa.40% of people who are bitten by suspect rabid animals are child Chat Doctor. Dogs are the source of the vast majority of human rabies deaths. Immediate wound cleansing and immunization within a few hours after contact with a suspect rabid animal can prevent the onset of rabies and death. I would strongly suggest you to complete the whole course of anti-rabies injections. If the dog is not rabies infected, then there is nothing to be worried about. It's important to get completely vaccinated because it protects your child completely and also in case he is exposed again later in life the number of injections will reduce to just 2 in number.
