Is a vampire bite lethal?

Vampires aren't real.. No. A single vampire bite, in and of itself, is a very minor occurance. Lucy Westenra's first bite was mistaken for the scar of an unfortunately placed broach pin. It is not the bite that is lethal but the commutative loss of blood. The vampire contagion is likewise a minor infection that can be over-come in a week or so. It is effective only if the victim dies of Exsanguination.
