A doctor told me that human bites are pretty much the worst just 3 days ago. Get your teeth off me you damn, dirty human. FYI, mouse or rat bites are apparently not bad at all. They can't transmit rabies to humans and are fairly clean as far as bites go. >> Also, didn't I read that the victim was missing a big part of his >> face including most of his nose?

He yelled at the biter and he was ignored, which is not surprising. >> On Tue, May 29, 2012 at 10:15 PM, LRS Scout<lrssc...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> >>> Weren't you an EMT? Me? No. >>> Please tell me how facial bites can kill you? First things that comes to mind are blood loss and shock. Also I don't think it would take much to get a good bite in on the neck or under the jaw line. Crazy dude was biting chunks out of the victim's face. I think he was probably biting hard enough to do the deed. In the long term, yes, infection is a big worry, but so are other complications. That guy is going to have a rougher time of it if he is malnourished or suffering from other health problems (both likely). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:351607 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
