The bite was so small that Leah thought it was harmless, and she continued to do everything as usual for more than a month before her symptoms began to appear. At first, Leah thought she had the flu, but her symptoms quickly became severe on November 18.
Leah's daughter took her mother to the emergency room when she saw her mother's health rapidly deteriorating. After several days of intensive care in the hospital, doctors gave Leah's family the tragic news that the treatments were not working and that Leah would not survive.
Upon receiving the shocking news, the family, friends and colleagues of teacher Leah Seneng were heartbroken, no one could have expected the incident to be so serious. After the tragic incident, California authorities issued a warning to the public about the dangers of contact with bats.
"Bats' bites are very small and not easily detected by the naked eye. The safest way is to avoid direct contact with wild animals. If you do come into contact, wash your hands immediately after contact. If you are bitten by a wild animal, seek medical attention immediately," said Dr. Tomás J. Aragón, director of the California State Public Health Commission.
