Hello.
Thank you for asking at HCM.
Insect bite allergy and incomplete course of rabivax has no relation.
Sometimes an insect bite causes a large reaction, which takes time to heal, in between it may be get infected, and repeated scratching it will not allow it to heal.
So please do not correlate it with incomplete course of vaccination.
Hope this will be helpful to you.
Wish your daughter the best of the health.
