What is the shelf life for rabies?

Answer 1

Rabies virus is not stable outside a host and does not survive long in the environment. It can typically survive for only a few hours to a few days on surfaces, depending on conditions like temperature and humidity. Once a rabies vaccine has been prepared, it generally should be used within a few hours if not refrigerated. For rabies vaccines, the shelf life varies but can be several months to a few years if stored properly.
