Can women be vaccinated against rabies during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is best for you to get rabies vaccination. Since rabies is a fatal disease, any contraindication is secondary to saving a life. Therefore, there are no contraindications for post-exposure prophylaxis after being bitten by an animal with rabies. It is possible to be infected with rabies, and it is recommended to get vaccinated within 24 hours.
