"The parents looked, didn't see any signs of a bite or scratches or saliva, and didn't seek getting a rabies vaccine," a health official said.

Maybe it drooled into their open mouth or something. Or onto their hand and later they picked their nose.

Sounds possible. Bats are mammals, maybe it sneezed, covered, but didn’t wash it’s hands, gave the kid a high five, and then the kid wiped a booger out of his eye with it.

Poor kid, never had a chance.

Heartbreaking
