That's not the case in Europe.

Free in Turkey, even if you have no insurance. You just need to go to an ER that has shots.

They give you a schedule for up to 5 shots. If you decide to skip one, they send police to your house, who will take you to ER.

It was still 210€ for 3 shots when I took it. (Germany)

Yet it is fully covered by public health insurance in Germany (got my rabies shots refunded by the TK).

Not fully and not by all public insurers AFAIK. But the price of the vaccination itself is still high anyway.
