On 7 Oct 2023, a man and a woman went to the emergency department of the Reims University Hospital. Both had been injured by a cat in a North African country a few weeks earlier. As soon as they were admitted, the medical team identified that the woman presented clinical signs compatible with a suspected diagnosis of rabies. Despite rapid treatment in intensive care, the patient died on 9 Oct 2023. Asymptomatic, the man was given preventive care: prophylactic postexposure vaccination and monitoring. He is no longer hospitalised.
