Health officials are working to alert hundreds of people in dozens of states and many countries, which may be Rabies Bat-infected cabins in Vyoming Grand Tetten National Park In the last few months.
Till Friday, none of the bats found in some of the eight associated cabins at Jackson Lake Lodge conducted a positive test for rabies.
Vyoming State Health Officer Dr. Alexia Harrist stated that a handful of dead bats were found and sent to the Vyoming State Veterinary Laboratory in Larami in Larami, which was probably a small sample of dozens of those who colonized the attic above the line of cabins.
Other bats were not killed, but went out through the cabin doors and windows. Meanwhile, the vast majority never fell into the locations living with the attic.
Health authorities thus considered it a better way that he is sorry to alert every person who has recently stopped in cabins that they can be bitten or scratched. Especially when people are sleeping, a bat can be cut or scratched and no one can pay attention.
Harrist said on Friday, “We are really concerned about those who saw bats in their room and people who could have direct contact with the bat.”

The cabins have been canceled, there are no plans to reopen, as the concessional Grand Tetten Lodge Company discovered the bat problem on 27 July.
Bats are a frequent vector of rabies virus. Once symptoms are – muscle pain, vomiting, itching, some names – rabies are almost always fatal in humans.
The good news is that soon after exposure, five-shot-anti-dietary diet is highly effective in preventing the disease, the Harrist said.
Cabins were opened for the summer season in May after being empty in winter. In late July, on the basis of about 250 reservations, health officials estimated that up to 500 people stayed in cabins.
They were trying to reach people in 38 states and seven countries through health agencies of those states and in the case of foreign visitors, American Disease Control and Prevention Center.
Others who have not yet been alert, but in the cabin 516, 518, 520, 522, 524, 524, 526, 526 and 530 this year, health officials or doctors have been immediately told, the Harrist said.
Health officials were recommending anti -pathogamy shots for those who fit certain criteria, such as deep sleepers who found a bat in their room, and children to say that they saw a bat.
Health Vyering Department had no concern about visitor safety in the Jackson Lake Lodge area. This includes a Federal Reserve Economic Policy Symposium August 21-23 that takes place at Jackson Lake Lodge every summer.
Vyoming’s public health veterinarian Emily Curan said, “The lodge company has done a great job of doing its proper hard work to ensure that he is coming for everyone, and this year is going to be as safe as possible for all other trips.”
The dead bats from the “three or four” cabins tested the negative and one that was not enough to test the brain tissue in the mangleted, curen said.
All were brown bats, which come in two species: “Little” and “Big”, with bigger people more than doubled. Officials were uncertain what these species were, but both are common in Vyoming.
They usually live in colonies of 30 to 100 persons, Karen said.
“It is a lot of bats that we cannot dismiss the risk of being in rabies,” Karen said. “There is no way for us to know anything about each bat that found in these rooms.”
Grand Tetten National Park spokesman Emily Davis said there is no plan to drive away the bats. He said that the equipment in the building was preventing the bats from coming back after flying in search of insects to eat to eat.
