Niño de 11 años muere de rabia tras encuentro con murciélago en Ontario

Salud

Un niño de 11 años del norte de Ontario falleció a causa de la rabia después de que un murciélago se posara en su cara mientras estaba en una cabaña, informó New York Post. El medio señaló que la mordedura de murciélago a menudo pasa desapercibida, lo que dificulta el tratamiento inmediato. CNN informó que se trata del primer caso de rabia adquirido localmente en la provincia desde 1967.

NewsNation indicó que la muerte ocurrió semanas después del contacto durante unas vacaciones de verano, subrayando la necesidad de una terapia post-exposición rápida. Según Fox News, las autoridades sanitarias de Ontario instaron a que cualquier persona expuesta a un murciélago busque evaluación médica de inmediato.
