Females are higher risk at all ages, while Hispanics have the highest risk with males at 45.4% and females at 52.5%. The good news is that in these categories, the numbers decline to 22.4% for females and 18.9% for males at age 60 years, and to 6.9% and 5.2%, at age 80 years. - Rockerchick

Question 3
Should I still worry about rabies?...  I saved a baby wild bunny that was probably 6 weeks old at the most. At the time I heard it crying out and a cat had it in its mouth. I scared the cat off and picked up the baby bunny and didnt see any visible sores and she wasnt bleeding.This was on 8/10/09. On 8/13 I was trying to clean up where I was keeping her and I must have scared her, she pinched my right index finger. Worried about rabbies due to not knowing about the cat, I went to the ER. The pinch was so small the ER doc laughed at me. He told me that rabbits dont carry rabies and when they do its hard for them to pass it on because of how they bight and most of the time they die right away. He gave me a tetanus shot and antibiotic and sent me on my way. Now today 11/3 my bunny bit me again because she was trying to tell me she was hungry, it wa sfeeding time. she bit down on my left index finger to where her top teeth hit my finger nail and cuticle and the bottom teeth hit the underneeth of my finger. I just have a small cut on my cuticle are from her tooth. should I still be worried about rabbies? I read online that animals can take months to show and people can take years? I am worried sick! Am i just freaking out for no reason? thanks!

3)   Rabies is widespread and common, rabbits however aren't noted carriers. If you were bitten by a raccoon I'd worry, but I wouldn't worry about a rabbit, you'll be fine:) - johnkmayer
