Has anyone on the list gone through rabies shots or opted not to take
them after being bitten?
Yesterday I got bit on the thumb by a fox I released from a snare. I
should have been wearing gloves but I couldn't find them. I did not
realize foxes were high on the local rabies list. There are a series of
shots to take over the month that will cost close to $2,000 and my
insurance will only cover a small portion of this. I have to start them
within 72 hours and it's been 24.
