>Before being sent to Turkey I was given a battery of shots, including three rabies shot in the stomach. I asked if this meant if I got bit I'd be okay and they said no, this will just increase your chances of staying alive until you can get to Ankara so we can give you the full 18.

FWIW, though not related to rabies, Marshal needed a course of blood thinners last year, and I got to give him a few shots in the belly. I'd never given anyone a shot for anything before, but the home care nurse they sent out taught me what to do. Kind of weird putting a needle into someone.
