No - there are several species of bats that will prey on humans, including the vampire bats (yes that's a real species) in South America. Also, while bats will generally not target you in an attack, if they are diseased they may attack you due to their illness. Bats can be infected with rabies, which is the first disease you should think of if you are bitten by one. Also, fruit bats can spread several viruses, including Hendra virus.
