As the temperature rises in our region, there is an increased risk that see or be in contact with sick, injured, and deceased flying foxes (bats). Bats can carry Australian Bat Lyssavirus (ABLV) which is a nationally notifiable disease that causes a fatal encephalitis similar to rabies.

ABLV is transmitted through a bite or scratch from an infected bat, or from contact with an infected bat via a wound or mucous membranes.

Metro South Public Health Unit advises clinicians to patients with wound care and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) to go ASAp to the nearest GP or hospital if they :

-are bitten/scratched by a bat

-have had mucous membrane exposure to bat saliva.
