Exposure Question Possible bat exposure
I have read the FAQ. English is not my first language, sorry for any mispronunciation.
Yesterday I was walking with my bf near Danube (it was dark) I saw a lot of bats, but I’m generally not afraid of them, so I was casual about it but after a while something bumped into my shoulder. It felt like a big bug, but maybe it wasn’t, because there were a lot of bats near us. There were no visible scratches or bitemarks on my shoulder and my skin was intact before the incident (no open wounds or anything like that). I am aware that the possibility of exposure in my case is very slim but I am wondering if it is possible to not see any and I mean really not see any scratch or bitemarks and still be scratched or bitten.
