Abstract
In their review of rabies (Nov. 25 issue),1 Fishbein and Robinson state that persons who have not been vaccinated before possible exposure to rabies should be given rabies immune globulin as a component of prophylaxis, whereas persons who have been vaccinated before exposure should not be given rabies immune globulin. Except for one small study,2 no published data support the omission of rabies immune globulin.
