Solution
The correct option is A anti-rabies Anti-rabies vaccine helps to prevent rabies disease if taken within stipulated time frame from being bitten by an infected dog. It is an injection given into the muscle of the upper arm. A person who is exposed/bitten and has never been vaccinated against rabies should get four doses of rabies vaccine followed by another shot called RIG (rabies immune globulin).
