Summary
Rabies exposures are surging across the U.S., with the CDC sounding the alarm after a spike in cases tied to multiple high-risk incidents — from raccoons in Virginia to bats in Yosemite. Medical professionals are urged to prioritize accurate risk assessments and follow strict post-exposure protocols, as vaccine use has skyrocketed this year. While rabies remains rare in America, its fatality rate is nearly zero when treated promptly with PEP — but that treatment can cost thousands. Stay safe: keep pets vaccinated, avoid wild animals, especially sick or injured ones like bats, raccoons, skunks, and foxes — and if you suspect exposure, seek care immediately.
