Medical institutions in the region that provide rabies treatment are equipped with the necessary vaccines.

Rabies is a viral infection that can be fatal; however, its development in humans can be prevented with timely vaccination.

In the event of a bite or saliva exposure from an animal (wild, stray, or domestic), it is essential to wash the affected area with water and urgently seek medical attention for a possible rabies vaccination.

The vaccination schedule typically consists of five shots: on the day of the doctor’s visit (day 0), as well as on days 3, 7, 14, and 28.
