Answer B. 2 doses of vaccine on day 0 and 3
Two doses of vaccine on Day 0 & 3 should be administered to this boy.
This case is classified under WHO category III since the bleeding was present at the site of dog-bite(toe). This kid should receive PEP without any delay as his immunization was done more than 3 months ago.
