PrepTest 86, Section 3, Question 14
Pratt: Almost all cases of rabies in humans come from being bitten by a rabid animal, and bats do carry rabies. But there is little justification for health warnings that urge the removal of any bats residing in buildings where people work or live. Bats are shy animals that rarely bite, and the overwhelming majority of bats do not have rabies.

Which one of the following, if true, most weakens Pratt's argument?
A rabid bat is much more likely to infect another bat than to infect any other type of animal.
Rabid bats are less mobile than other bats but are much more aggressive.
Most animals that carry rabies are animals of species that, under normal conditions, very rarely bite people.
The bat species with the highest incidence of rabies do not live in buildings.
People are more likely to be aware of having been bitten by a bat if they were bitten by the bat inside a building.
