How Do You Get RABIES?

Anyone can get rabies after contact with a rabid animal. Rabies is spread when a rabid animal's saliva gets through a person's skin via bites; contact to open wounds; or contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth. The virus can also spread to people when a rabid animal’s brain or spinal cord tissue comes into contact with a person’s open wounds, eyes, nose, or mouth.

In addition, people found in rooms with bats that are unable to state, “I know the bat did not touch me,” may have been exposed to rabies. This includes finding a bat in the room of a young child, toddler, or baby, a person with a learning disability, a sleeping person, or an inebriated person.

The guide includes helpful photos and step-by-step instructions on how to safely capture a bat if necessary:
