When I got my post exposure vaccines it was covered through workers comp, otherwise I would have had a 300 ER bill and possibly for each booster Im pretty sure my insurance is taking care of it. Paid my $100 copay and that was it

Dieing from rabies when it would have been preventable would look foolish. Even though Im pretty good at looking foolish on a regular bases I wasn't ready to end the streak with rabies.

It may take over a thousand of those coat coon to pay for them. "Not Really, Not Really" Mark J Monti "MJM you're a jerk."

Trapping is his FFA project this year. I sure miss the prices from 12-13 years ago.
