If you're already been bitten, seems a little late.

You can get it from animal bites, but it's not exactly common. Animals also eat weird stuff, so in theory it could have eaten feces or something metal.

This isn't going to be in a snakes mouth.

You sure it wasn’t a GDKC?

Don’t worry. The snake should be fine.

Got bit by snakes all the time growing up. Never had any issue with a bite. And most of the snakes we caught (and got bit by) were water snakes that lived in a sewage canal, so they weren’t exactly hygienic. Tetanus shots are for the weak.

If the AIDS doesn't kill you the venom will.

Nah, clean well with peroxide and use antibiotic ointment. Leave uncovered.

Was the rat hitchhiking on trains with other homeless bums?

From your name shouldn't you be more worried about coronavirus?
