This is a guide to the risk of rabies from bats handled in the UK. It is suitable for zoological settings, national parks and gardens, wildlife and woodland trusts, schools and educational settings near forests, woodlands and parks and for the public. In spring and autumn, juvenile bats can fall from nests and members of the public can handle or rescue them and often are bitten in this process. This leaflet encourages immediate seeking of health care treatment to reduce risk of rabies that can be caught from the bats.
This leaflet is for mums who have just given birth. The 2 doses of MMR vaccine will help protect them and their baby until the baby is old enough to get vaccinated. The leaflet is suitable for all healthcare settings including maternity units and GP surgeries.
The splenectomy leaflet and patient card are for patients to carry to show that they have no functioning spleen in the event of an accident or emergency or to show when having treatment in primary care. Patients should be given a few copies so that they always have a card on them in case it is required.
