Rabies Risk Rising This Fall | Greenville News

Fall’s here, and so is the risk of rabies—don’t ignore animal bites or scratches. This deadly virus, spread through saliva, can race to your brain if untreated. Skunks, raccoons, bats, and foxes are top suspects. Wash wounds immediately, seek medical help fast—even if the animal seems fine. Early treatment with shots can save your life. And don’t forget: vaccinating your pets is a key line of defense. Rabies is rare in humans, but when it strikes, it’s almost always fatal without prompt care.
