Question Vaccines for Indonesia

[Scubagermany]

Rabies vaccines are incredible expensive and you're likely to know if you've been bit or scratched by a mammal that carries rabies. I've heard (check with your doctor) that only folks who expect to be around and handling animals that carry rabies should get the shot.

Do not heed laymen advive when it concerns your life. You only have one. If you realize you have been bitten or somehow infected you have 24 hours to start your treatment or you will die. Be sure to have a hospital near you that can provide proper treatment if you are in some third world country. Otherwise you could just get the vaccine which has by the way not many adverse effects.
