Flying bat hit my car windshield
This is a very silly question. But i am bit scared. While I was driving my car today evening, a bat hit my car windshield and went away. I could see some sort of salaiva on the area it hit. I was driving with my AC turned on. Though it hit outside my car, i am just worried if the salaiva or any infectious material would have come in contact with me through AC. I am sure that i didnt touch the area the bat hit. I am worried as Bat may carry Rabies. My concern is would bat's saliava travel via air conditioner or air and infect humans. Kindly advise.

Hello, No. It is not possible to get infected by rabies like this. You have to come in direct contact with the animal. There is no need to worry. If you are still worried, kindly consult me so that I counsel you properly

You should be more worried about your car. If a flying bat hit the windshield of your moving car and the windshield didn't break , you should be grateful to the car manufacturers for providing an excellent windshield.

No need to worry. Most probably u might have set the AC inside ur car for internal air circulation.
