To determine:
What the man suffered from; what the antibodies were against; what the dark-staining bodies in his brains cells were; what the preventive measures are that might be used by the healthcare workers to save the man’s life.
Case summary:
A man with a neurological disorder (anxiety, feelings of fear, and unrestrained facial twitching) reached an emergency room. He also developed swallowing difficulties, itching, and sore throat. He negated to drink water due to swallowing difficulties. He frequently vomited and his body temperature is increased (106ºF). He died after being admitted in the hospital for one week. Increased antibody titer (blood) and dark-staining bodies (brain cells) are discovered after the autopsy. Through investigations, his family and friends mentioned that a bat had landed on his face.

- A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
