Overview
- During a solo trip to Krabi, a baby monkey climbed onto her head before several larger animals approached and one bit her calf.
- She initially skipped medical care because she was fully vaccinated, then sought help when the bite area turned discolored.
- At a local hospital she received a rabies booster and antibiotics, was placed in a bed for observation, and was discharged after about 30 minutes.
- Beautx said she panicked at the hospital but is now recovering and continues taking antibiotics, with no further complications reported.
- Coverage identifies the animals as macaques and notes that bites at tourist sites in Thailand are a known hazard.
