Rabies is 100% fatal once symptoms appear, but 100% preventable with timely vaccination. Thailand has one of the highest rabies rates in Southeast Asia, with stray dogs and monkeys in tourist areas like Khaolak posing real risks to visitors and residents.
If you’ve been bitten, scratched, or had contact with saliva from any animal in Khaolak, immediate vaccination can save your life. Even seemingly minor encounters require medical evaluation.

- Monkey encounters – Bites or scratches from monkeys at tourist sites or national parks
- Cat bites or scratches – Even from seemingly friendly street cats
- Bat contact – Any physical contact with bats, even without obvious bites
- Other mammal bites – Rats, foxes, or wild animals
- Saliva exposure to open wounds – Animal saliva contacting broken skin or mucous membranes

Frequently Asked Questions About Rabies Vaccination
How quickly do I need rabies vaccination after a bite?
As soon as possible. While rabies has a variable incubation period (usually 1-3 months), there’s no safe waiting period. The vaccine is most effective when started immediately after exposure. Come to our clinic right away – even minor scratches or bites can transmit rabies. Delaying treatment reduces effectiveness and increases risk.
How many rabies shots will I need?
For post-exposure treatment, the standard protocol is 4 doses over 2 weeks (days 0, 3, 7, and 14). If you’ve never been vaccinated before and the bite is severe, you may also need rabies immunoglobulin (RIG) on day 0. If you received pre-exposure vaccination before traveling, you only need 2 booster doses. Our doctors will determine the appropriate schedule for your situation.
Is the rabies vaccine safe?
Yes, modern rabies vaccines are very safe and well-tolerated. Side effects are typically mild – soreness at the injection site, headache, or mild fever. Serious reactions are extremely rare. The risk of rabies (which is 100% fatal) far outweighs any vaccine risks. We use internationally approved vaccines trusted by millions of travelers worldwide.
