Why can dogs get a yearly rabies shot but humans can’t?

326 views

Our dogs and cats get yearly rabies shots, where I live its free and the government even sets up a mobile clinic in our neighborhood. One shot lasts them a year and doesn’t seem to have any negative side effects. Why can’t humans get a similar shot when we go in for our flu shot?

Almost all dog rabies shots in the US last for 3 years. There is no difference in the dosage or consistency of the vaccine. The only reason you get it yearly is lobbyists for the animal doctors and vaccine manufacturer have pushed for annual shots so that you have to bring your pet into their office once a year, keeping up their revenue stream.

Its disgusting that pets are being over vaccinated for profit.

Even though your shot is ‘free’ to you its still being paid for with taxpayer dollars.
