A 16-year old male presents to the emergency department (ED) after a potential exposure to a bat while sleeping in a barn. He believes his friend may have been bitten by the bat, but did not have any known contact with the bat himself. The bat could not be found after the incident. The patient has not noticed any skin changes and has no other physical complaints.
