[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Rabies is a disease which is also transmitted by bite of the monkey, it is a 100% fatal disease, but it is 100% preventable by proper and adequate treatment. As you were scratched by your relatives German Shepard dog on your shoulder which has led to bleeding and the dog was vaccinated against the disease rabies, according to WHO categorizes it has been categorized into Cat III. Cat III requires both active and passive immunization. Active immunization with antirabies vaccine on days 0,3,7,14 and 28 (if the dog is healthy you can stop the vaccine after the third dose). The vaccine should be taken to the shoulder by the intramuscular route. You need to take a shot of tetanus injection too. The aforementioned treatment will protect you against developing the disease rabies. Thank you.
