Let me ask you this. If the animal is tested as rabid. What's the next step for the bitten?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

If a animal is tested positive the human have to undergo about 2-4 vaccinations that might need to be repeated and will cost a great amount, or they die. The vaccination has a lot of side effects.

It doesn’t have any more potential side effects than any other vaccine. It’s not special in this regard.

So the euthanasia step is really not needed and just go straight to the vaccination part.

Sure, that makes sense for a country with socialized health care. You still shouldn't keep wild animals as pets.

Hmmm, in my country rabies vaccine cost more or less $20 a jab.

Still what they did was PETA level cruel.

Yeah, well in the US of A it costs up to 500 dollars per shot, and you need at least four.

I blame P'nut's death on the owner.

Consise and correct information. Thanks for sharing and explaining the reasoning for the actions taken.

Nah, I blame the Karen that reported the Instagram account. Peanut would still be alive if not for her envy that peanut has more followers than her.
