Contracting Rabies
I had traveled through some knee-high plants (I did return to the same section I was at and noticed some rose thorns) while in the woods. I believe that I did not get scratched by an animal - I do not recall hearing anything - but I am still concerned that somehow I was scratched by an animal. I received 3 scratches, long, but not deep (This is a worst case scenario; I may be assuming an extreme prognosis) Is it possible that I may have been infected with rabies (through a small animal scratch)?
