Why are people talking about rabies so often?
Maybe I am naive, but I see a lot posts and comments about how important it is to get rabies shots after almost no contact with animals.
Don't get me wrong, I know how dangerous it is and in the post below I understand that it is necessary to get rabies shot after a racoon attack you, but in the comments below, people talk how they got rabies shots after a bat flew into their house. No bites, no scratches, nothing.
Is that such a huge problem in the US, that you guys have to look out for?
For context I live in Germany, where rabies is almost extinct. We know what rabies is, but I don't know anyone who ever got the shots.
