Case of bubonic plague surfaces in a city in China's Inner Mongolia

The alert forbids the hunting and eating of animals that could carry plague and asks the public to report any suspected cases of plague or fever with no clear causes, and to report any sick or dead marmots.

Sunday’s warning follows four reported cases of plague in people from Inner Mongolia last November, including two of pneumonic plague, a deadlier variant of plague. The bubonic plague, known as the “Black Death” in the Middle Ages, is a highly infectious and often fatal disease that is spread mostly by rodents.

Plague cases are not uncommon in China, but outbreaks have become increasingly rare. From 2009 to 2018, China reported 26 cases and 11 deaths.

USA has on average 1 death and 7 cases per year mostly in South West.

This is what happens when 1.3 billion people consume anything that moves.

They’d had a few cases in November which is why some were following ‘just a cough in China with a few hundred people’ so closely early on. Thought WuFlu might’ve been related at the time So Rat, Swine, Avian, And WuFlu, with some Bubonic thrown in for flavor. China SOO Clean!

What other country?

Happens quite a bit there.

What? I thought thia disease had been eradicated

Who had that on their card for July?
