[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You guys are CRAZY, overly litigious, and all that is wrong with so many

Our dd was bitten by our new rescue when in 2nd grade.  We called our pediatrician, who told us  dog bite was cleaner than a human bite, and had her sibling bit her we'd be heading to ER, but dog was fine.

She was at a friend's house, and friends family said dog has it's shots.  Why would you not believe friends?!?![/quote]

Because DCUM is radically anti-dog.[/quote]

Because rabies is almost always fatal you effing nut job. You get vaccine record to make 100% sure. [/quote]

There are 1 to 3 cases a YEAR in the US. There was a spike in 2005 to 5 deaths and all were from bats. You people are crazy. [/quote]

Please explain why doctors and ERs highly recommend that people bitten by unverified dogs get rabies shots? [/quote]

DP. I’m confused what you two are arguing over, but doctors recommend a post-rabies series for people in contact with bats or bitten by animals because, while rabies is relatively rare in humans, it is almost always fatal. The post-rabies shots are very safe. There’s no reason not to be cautious and get the vaccine. [/quote]
