The Brazilian health authorities are battling a wave of attacks by rabid vampire bats which have in the last two months killed 23 people. More than 1,300 bite victims have also been treated for rabies during the outbreak, which the authorities describe as “unusually serious”. Vampire bats - the main carriers of rabies in Brazil - suck the blood of other mammals while they’re asleep, and will commonly attack cattle.
Call ‘em off already…
Yeah, I know, it’s an inside joke.
