From what I understand Pamela was bitten whilst she still had 2 days left in Bali and she had her first vaccination here. So within the 3 days. I certainly hope so Pamela.
tintin said:Furthermore, if one waits more than 3 days before getting the first vaccine shot, it means "good bye," since the immunization will be effective after the rabies viruses have taken hold of one's system.
.The average time for a person to become symptomatic is four weeks and can even be years later
That is not entirely correct for several reasons

Death toll has reached 17 after a resident died Saturday from an alleged case of rabies in Tabanan, Bali.
Tempointeraktif.com reported that 46-year-old I Gusti Ngurah Sudiharta was buried on Sunday after he was suspected to have suffered from rabies since Thursday. He was bitten by a dog in August but did not have the anti-rabies vaccine injection afterwards because it was not available in Tabanan at that time.
He was rushed to the Tabanan Regional Public Hospital but it was too late to save his life. To confirm the cause of death, the hospital sent a saliva sample to the Udayana Laboratory.
Sumiartha, health agency chief in Tabanan, said the regency had been declared an epidemic area after Badung and Denpasar.
“We named Tabanan as the next epidemic area late August. That’s why we obtained the anti-rabies vaccine on August 25,” Sumiartha said.
