Une évaluation de l'efficacité des prophylaxies pré- et post-exposition a été faite récemment par le Groupe Stratégique Consultatif d'Experts de l'OMS. Parmi ces recommandations il y a l'adoption d'un nouveau protocole intradermique de prophylaxie post-exposition en 3 visites qui permettra un schéma vaccinal raccourci et plus rentable économiquement.
