Teen travels
abroad for
rabies shots
EAGLE PASS, Texas (API-
An Eagle Pass teenager, bitten
and clawed by a cat believed to
be rabid, has flown to London to
take a series of anti-rabies
vaccinations not yet available
in. the United States.
Blake McBeath, 18, is the
second Eagle Pass resident this
month to travel to England for
the Human Diploid
inoculations. John David
Sumpter, 5, flew to London Feb.
5 after he had been bitten by a
cat confirmed to have rabies.
Andy McBeath said his son
was bitten and clawed on both
legs Jan. 31, by a cat that of-
ficials believe was the same
animal that bit the Sumpter
Youth Feb. 3.
“He didn’t report that he was
bitten. He thought the shots
would interfere with his
baseball and would be too
painful. He thought they were
just minor bites and claw
marks. He later talked to a
nurse friend who convinced him
of the seriousness." said the
elder McBeath.
He said his son began taking
anti-rabies shots in Eagle Pass
last Sunday. However, he said
they decided to send his son to
England when a doctor in
Atlanta told them the Human
Diploid vaccine was better and
less painful.
