I got the newer series in the butt cheek and arms. But it was probably 30 years ago now. I remember being a bit stiff in the arms and legs but not much else.

I had the shots last year. My immune globulin cost 37k for the first one and 100 bucks each for the vaccine shots given at day 0,3,7,and 14 for a total of 4 vaccine shots.
I spend all my money on loose women and trapping supplies.....The rest I just waste.

Been exposed many times due to profession. But, I been vaccinated since 1989. I get boosted every 3-4 years when getting ready to go hunt Africa now. Haven’t seen a rabid horse now in years...but have seen quite a few.
When I was teaching at a veterinary college. We had one come in an exposed many students as horses (as well as cattle) don’t act typical. Fortunately, vet students all vaccinated in 1st year. Are you an Aggie Dr of Vet Medicine??? 👍🏻 Yes sir.

It’s grown so much since I left there.

Always wondered if hydrophobia was real
Had a guy stank so bad on my roofing crew, wondered if he had rabies.

I seem to recall a series of regular shots for rabies (4?) before I went to Africa in ‘80.
Dog rabies is common there. Once I was eating inside a walled compound outside in my village and the sound of dog paws passed by, followed by running feet and the cry of ONNIOOO!!! (mad dog). They chase em down with poles or ladders, anything long enough to pin the dog down so they can whack it with machetes.
A little girl in the next village got bit but fortunately they had the gamma gobulin/whatever in stock at the mission hospital I worked at.
From what I was told by the hospital staff watching someone die of rabies ain’t pleasant, especially if you don’t have the supplies to render them unconscious until they pass.
While I was over there a British girl working in Egypt had a stray dog lick a scratch on her leg from under a table in the market. She didn’t think anything of it but that was all it took.
