“Let me know how that works out for you if you get bitten by a rabid dog. I’m pretty sure that no amount of vitamin D and zinc is going to stop that virus from getting into your brain. But, you know, it’s your choice not to receive the vaccine or antiserum if you get bit.”

Antiserum is not a vaccine. I also would have no problem taking a TIG shot after stepping on a rusty nail.
Also rabies is not Covid-19. Is there a rabies vaccine in the CDC schedule?
So...nice try.

You claim that you will never take vaccines. You've just told me (indirectly) that you *will* take vaccines if you are bitten by a rabid dog (or bat, which is more likely).
According to the CDC, if you are bit by a rabid animal, "Postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) consists of a dose of human rabies immune globulin (HRIG) and rabies vaccine given on the day of the rabies exposure, and then a dose of vaccine given again on days 3, 7, and 14." The rabies vaccine is, of course, a vaccine. "Immune globulin" is a fancy way of saying "antibodies", which are produced by B-cells that were induced by vaccination. I had the rabies vaccine before I traveled to a country where rabies is a problem.
You've outed yourself as an anti-vaxxer, which tells me a lot about you. You don't care how many people die from infectious diseases, but you will act to save yourself when your life is on the line.
