The rabies vaccine needs fairly frequent renewal (more than once a year). People likely to contract it (vets, pest control, zookeepers, etc) get them. Others get post exposure treatment that is very effective.

This isn't accurate. It may need frequent renewal, which is why most professionals get titers regularly to test for immunity.
Most vets I know have only ever had one or two doses per decade.
