Precautions for suspected bat contact

2020-04-16 17:46:25
Hello, Last Friday a small bat accidentally entered our flat. We managed to let it out without incident, but it had flown close to our 1year old daughter, and we are worried since she is too young to tell us anything about physical contact. Should we be taking any precautions? Rabies vaccination etc?
