Well, before the onslaught of beaver jokes happens, let me just say "YEOWCH! That poor girl!"

Beavers can chew trees in half, imagine what those teeth would do to human flesh.

And the girl had to have the whole rabies series too, Ill bet.

Asking the ones who know, does she still automatically get the rabies series of shots or is there a test they give her before doing it? Are there still plenty of shots that have to be given or have they improved the treatment over the years?

My prayers go out to her.

No, they really gave it to the beaver.

Rabies shots aren't so bad anymore; I've had 'em. (bat encounter). The worst part was the Immunoglobulin shots at the wound site.

I think there's a new series of only 5 shots now as opposed to the couple of dozen it used to take.

The beaver chased them, she said, and two men attending the pig roast cornered the animal and killed it with a shovel.

They'll be lucky if there aren't any reprisals.

NO, it's a fine needle in the upper arm (and you switch arms between shots) and many fewer shots than were once required. The first treatment is the worst, because you get extra IgG shots (not vaccine) the number of which varies on your weight.

A specialist at Loudoun County Hospital in Virginia provided treatment on her hand that included reconstructive surgery on the tendons, nerves and veins

They should have just covered it in cow dung.

That's what I was wondering. Still doesn't sound like a pleasant experience.
