  It was 3 injections I think and it was because I was visiting tropical country and the cdc website recommended a series of vaccines.

  I mainly got them because insurance said they would reimburse it. But they didn’t and all in all I’m out $2000.

  They even admitted that they told me they would reimburse it and they were wrong, but they still refuse to reimburse me.

    Yeah so that’s just the vaccine itself no immunoglobulin . And you’re right the price is insane. For a killed virus rabies vaccine for animals it costs $20 a dose or less
