Aguas con los MurZIHélagos

Perhaps you are unaware of the fact that I'm a retired Emergency Doc. In the USA the leading vector for human rabies is bats. they cause around 70% of all human rabies cases. Although the number of cases is low, it is wise to exercise caution. While Mexico has been declared rabies free in terms of dog bites about 22.5 per cent of bat species in Mexico are known to carry rabies. There were actually two human cases in Oaxaca in 2022 caused by bats.

Methinks it was an attempt at humor. You are spot on, Good Doctor. Our friend got bit by a bat. The bat was not captured. She had to undergo the series of shots. Her description of the ordeal was not pleasant.
