Australia Warns of Fake Rabies Vaccines in India

Australia has warned that fake rabies vaccines might be sold in India.

These fake vaccines, called Abhayrab, have been around since November 1, 2023.

If you got this vaccine in India, you might not be fully protected against rabies.

Rabies is a very serious disease that can be spread by animal bites, especially from dogs.

If you think you got the fake vaccine, you should see a doctor to get another vaccine that works.

It's also important to be careful around animals when traveling to places where rabies is common.

Always keep good records of your vaccines.

India has a big problem with rabies, and many people get the vaccine there every year.

But sometimes, the vaccines might not be real, which can be very dangerous.
