Oh, I am not against conversation of these topics here... not at all! And I am aware that you get different answers in different countries... finally it's always a personal decision.

I just think it is better to get infos like "how many shots for xxx" from a reputable medical website, as a second choice from someone who has first hand experience and only then these "I heard somewhere that..." answers.

Sure!

In fact we like to discourage the giving of firm medical 'advise'.

I understand where you are coming from. However the words "I heard.....not sure" are put in for the same reason, so that they can be further discussed, if anyone has more knowledge about it.

Secondly this is not a medical forum, the major part is this is a "Forum" and no one in his/her right might should actually depend for medical advice on this place especially for something as serious as rabies.
