Fraser Health is asking people to seek medical help if they were at White Pine Beach in the Metro Vancouver community of Belcarra, on Saturday and had direct contact with a bat.

The health authority says a group of nine people who tried to help the bat must be all tested for rabies.

The health authority says bats are the only natural reservoir of rabies in BC.

Fraser Health on Twitter:

Were you in direct contact with a bat last night at 7:45 p.m. at White Pine Beach in #Belcarra? If so, seek medical assistance immediately. Go to the nearest emergency department to be assessed for possible #rabies exposure: http://ow.ly/gXj050FoCYF
