The town of Morrison, Colorado, in Jefferson County, which is just west of Denver, made the startling announcement saying that the squirrel is the first case of plague in the county.
Jefferson County Public Health said that cats are highly susceptible to the plague from things like flea bites, a rodent scratch or bite, and ingesting an infected rodent. Cats can die if not treated quickly with antibiotics after contact with the plague.Officials also said that dogs are not as susceptible to the plague as cats are but still may pick up and carry plague-infected rodent fleas. Any pet owner who suspects that their pet is ill should contact a veterinarian immediately.
BATH, ENGLAND - APRIL 23: A squirrel looks from a tree in Royal Victoria Park on April 23, 2013 in Bath, England.
They have antibiotics for the plague now please quit making this a big deal. People will start killing these animals
See, self quarantine, face masks, washing of paws, and complete social distancing stopped the plague among squirrels. End of sentence, period, any questions?
Congrats on finding the ONE squirrel outta like millions of those fuckers.
Posted 2018... 🥱🥱
I have a question, who brought tha squirrel over the border? Better yet what company was it keeping... Honduras rats?
Is that the bubonic squirrel?
So? The rats had it last year in AZ or something. Stop this fear mongering.
Shouldnt we be focusing on Covid? Jk
And armadillos can pass on leprosy whats your point ?
Whats the news here? Lots of wild animals may have bubonic plague. Prairie dogs,mice,rabbits,etc,etc.
Lol
So.Who in the world cares.
ABC, the Doom News Network... Plague has BEEN here, and although not connected per se, it's found in almost every State with a high incidence of hantavirus. Do endeavor to grow the **** up.
ABC news is a clickbait supermarket tabloid
What happened to your murdering Hornets? The real plague is stupidity - it's running rampant!
Great
Cool... ugh
Trying to create more panic? This isn’t new news..
Before long every disease in the world will descend upon us compliments of the nutty Liberals!!!!! Scare tactic from the media....kinda getting old guys! 🇺🇸
Let me guess - its President Trump's fault again?
In 2019 ABC wrote this and we are still OK people! This isnt a new plague....
Now add that bubonic plague is easily treatable with common antibiotics you fear porn junkies.
Admit it. You never saw it coming. Squirrelpocalypse
This is a projection story. Look up how many times squirrels have been mentioned with the plague over the past many years. Nothing new here.
When did squirrel went to Mongolia
A goat in Minnesota 3 STDs...
I have no words...
abc is really stepping up on original & serious journalism...can you say more (nuts) fodder for Controlavirus agenda
Fuck that squirrel
Oh God! It's migrated in 8 years! How do we stop them!?
Now we’re testing squirrels? wheresfauci?
Was put in ER or he got lost in the woods? I wonder.
Squirrel lives matter. SLM
Leave it to the dumb asses over to go around testing random squirrels in the Colorado mountains for bubonic plague 🙄 JustWhenYouThoughtTheyCouldNotTopThemselves SquirrelsWearTinyMasks
That’s not new. Rodents have been testing positive for plague in the four corners for years. And Hantavirus.
Oh my Lord. God help us.
Don't eat it stupid!
Its not a plague anymore! 🤔
We would never know if Mr. Squirrel didn't get it tested.
Oh FFS. This is total bullshit.
after the marmots in Mongolia 🇲🇳, that sucks.
Eh
Not much different than South Dakota prairie Dogs, they have signs up warning people of possibility of them having. SO- look dont touch, DUH
The globalists eugenicists are testing positive for crazy as hell with a 4th reach genocide.
I thought Colorado doesn’t have fleas....too dry and it freezes. Not conducive weather for these insects. Strange.....
FakeNews
Along with several hundred chipmunks and prairie dogs.
the quality of your news reporting is reaching all time high levels
That’s it!!! Quarantine all squirrels!!
WHO in Gods name is testing squirrels and where the HELL did they get a test for it?
Watch out for those things.
News abc has been tested for being fake news and a POS.
The left know they can’t beat Trump... so on to the next emergency lol
Have they started testing the rabbits ?
I read we have about 7 human cases of the plague in the US every year....so...1 squirrel tested positive? Guess is hoping for a BIG story. Sorry...but NOPE....
Lol
Fear mongers, not news reporters.
So tell it to wear a mask and stay in its tree. Yeh, it's stupid suggestion. Think about it.
More FakeNews & lies. EnemyOfThePeople
So...um...Not COVID? Predict a retraction next week.
Probably a lab in Florida.
And? This is NOT abnormal in the slightest. Read a REAL science book sometime. Squirrels and ESPECIALLY Prairie Dogs carry Bubonic.
Are squirrels required to wear masks? If not why not?
What insurance coverage do theses illegal immigrants have?
Nice try assholes.
Must have gotten botox...
Did the sick squirrel show up at the ER on its own? Plandemic
Calm down, abc. I'm not in the mood for your fear mongering. Yersinia pestis, the bacterium responsible for bubonic plague, naturally occurs in squirrel & prairie dog populations in western US. Each year a small number of cases are reported. This isn't another pandemic.
More fear mongering by DemoKKKrats. Murder hornets didn’t pan out, so let’s try squirrels carrying the plague.
Oh shit... close California!
Time to start rationing nuts .
What's next The NUT?
Why did they test the squirrel in the first place
Well we are testing more.
Squirrels are a type of rodent. Where do you think the bubonic plague comes from...rodents. jeez you're the very reason why journalism is dead!
He’d been feeling a little Mediaval.
Nuts!
Damn....I broke the 6 ft rule 😳
FAKE NEWS!!!
Enemy of the people. We're not buying your bullshit stories anymore.
Lol. Really. Hahahahahahaa. No more murder hornets?
was he symptomatic or did he just visit a walk up testing site..or tree..
Funny China had been having same problem with other animals!
Thought and prayers to you.
why does this remind me of the killer Asian giant hornet Scare?
All squirrels need to wear masks and stay 6ft apart from other squirrels. Raccoons too.
That's nuts
Prairie Dog populations get this all the time in CO.
So treat it with gentamicin and shut up
🤣🤣
Put a mask on it and ration its acorn intake.
Bubonic plague...great, just great
One squirrel. And? Your point? 🤷 Many mice in NM have Hantavirus?
News Bonic Plague...
That's fine journalism ABC. Very important topic.
No it didn’t
ABC news is a tabloid at this point
Did he check himself into the hospital?
PANIC PORN!
2020 SMH 🤦♀️🤦♀️😷😖
No squirrels in my Yards anymore.
Goddamn it
Awww nutz
and we thought the covid was bad, right?
MASK THE SQUIRRELS!
Of course it did. 2020IsGonnaKillUsALL
America : 'FUCKING SQUIRRELS GET TESTED FOR THE PLAGUE, BUT I CAN'T GET A FUCKING CORONAVIRUS TEST?'
NO MORE TRYING TO AVOID THE LITTLE BASTARDS
So ... are we allowed to shoot squirrels?
Really? Have you stopped this low? Nevermind. Stupid question.
Ok please don’t kill all the squirrels you crazy hunters! Kill the people that eat the wild animals that brought it here!
california squirrels especially in Los Angeles and Frisco already has it
We test squirrels for plague ?
I wonder how far in the back of the squirrels nose they had to stick that Q-tip!
Oh my Lord!!! This has been a very scary year!!!
Now will people agree squirrels can be a menace, a danger, A risk to all we hold dear? squirrelhunterr PestControlNews
He's a month early....bubonic 2020 was next month.
bonostaf1 Nooo, poor squirrel!
It’s like armadillos carry leprosy.
... as if squirrels were not bad enough already...
The end is near people!
So how did you figure out to test the squirrel and how did you test. Think I am stupid!!! Liberal bs
I thought USA always had cases of the plague every year?
That's nuts
All squirrels are now required to wear face masks
It was counted as a positive Covid 19 case though.
they've been ramping up to the bubonic plague for while now.
This is a real tweet!
lol, i bet it's really covid, put the mask on
this is not news
Has he been bubonic tested !
Ummmm
Was the squirrel community upset about the news?
This same story was happening a few years ago old news.... Campground closed after ground squirrel tests positive for plague
Colorado Squirrels just wanna have fun coloradosquirrels
7777MYNAME STOP THE FEARMONGERING. TELL THE TRUTH FOR ONCE.
Why the HELL are you putting out headlines like this? That is a common occurrence in rodents. It is also easily treatable with antibiotics. It is absolutely disgusting to stoke this kind of fear in a population that may not know it’s common. Especially NOW. You people are sick!
🙄 So, there was this squirrel, who identified as a Prairie Dog..... The plague has been around a long time! Nothing to fear, unless you live in a third world democrat run sesspool. And I thought the aliens were finally going to arrive! 😠
So basically its the beginning of the end
Fuck yeah, bring it on. BRING IT ALL ON
Prairie dogs get it all the time. It’s still an issue out West. (AZ)
🙄
That better be a picture of the actual squirrel or there will be a defamation law suit!
Don’t they have anything better to do than test every living thing on the planet ? It’s because they are giving them the disease , that’s why
I am so done with 2020’s crap
Really? 😂😂😂😂😂
Just a random squirrel?
For the love of GOD
Was this before or after Murder Hornets?
So do the prairie dogs we have known this for years this is nothing
This is how it starts. First it’s one cute little squirrel 🐿, then you throw in wasps that murder. Next add an infected bat 🦇. Mix in Fire Ants lighting 🔥 in the forests. And then.... the birds, oh my, the birds! What on gods flat earth is going on?
Holy Hera! The rodent population of Colorado i.e. squirrels, rabbits, prairie dogs have had the plague for years. This is not news to me. Now me and my pellet gun are gonna go take care of the issue because I don't need my dogs getting that shit.
I am so glad the squirrel community is creating awareness...how diligent of them
How did they manage to catch one like? Those sods are fast.....🤔😑
Ah Huh!! We now have found our next virus plague.....🤔😏😜🤥
Pretty common. You even reported on it last year. Stop stoking ridiculous conspiracies and hysteria.
And WHO did it again
artologica artologica still squirrels of the day?
Great now plague infected freakin squirrels. Mother nature is pissed.
WHAT!!!!!! Plagues, plagues, plagues... enough. Seriously, not to long ago a saw this. I thought maybe it was one of those fake news sources. GOD FORBID, hasn't it been exterminated.
Okay and? This is a usual thing
I've always known squirrels can have rabies and they will bite, so I leave them alone. Problem solved.
Since 2010, there have been a total of at least 50 cases of bubonic plague. This isn't new or news. Please stop trying to scare the public with this nonsense.
Was the squirrel displaying symptoms? Have you instituted contact tracing to see if other squirrels have been exposed? Is it bigotry to order squirrels to shelter in tree?
TrevorTR773
2020 keeping at it
Not now, squirrels.
Lol!!!😂😂😭🤣
Whose idea was it to even test the squirrel. Right in the middle of a HUMAN mask mandate..... “Let’s test this squirrel for plague” So obvious
Say what?
More lies deceit and fake news again
Who tested the squirrel? 🤔
Seriously 2020, come on already give us a break.
Funny funny 😆 needed to laugh 😂
Next! 🤦♀️ You people are insane.
gtconway3d Change that dinner order to rabbit please.
The rats didn’t do a good job the first time so for round 2 it’s squirrels. “YOU DONT FUCK WITH SQUIRRELS MORTY” ~Rick Sanchez
Why not? 2020
did it just show up at A&E?
Well its been pretty slow around the country anyway.
IDK what's funnier the story itself, or you geniuses thinking this is news worthy! 🤣 BREAKING some squirrels have warbles! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
2020. The gift that keeps on, well, killing I guess.
Y'all are kidding, right
Really? Who found this squirrel? Why did they find it and why exactly was it tested for the Black Plague?
gasp. This isn't news, you avoid all rodents in Colorado and New Mexico because of the plague.
LMFAO please delete your twitter and get off the air. THIS is just one of the MANY reasons no one takes you seriously anymore.
Fuuuuuuuuuuck you 2020
Omg!! Say it ain’t so!!! 🤣🤣😅😅😂🤣
danielleeevee LOL
The Murder Squirrels have arrived.
How the hell does that happen? Do we have something else to worry about now? Probably not, but how did the squirrel get it?
Damn, 2020!
This isn’t fair! I was promised murder hornets!!! Now they get bumped for death squirrels. 2020 is bs 😜
This is the year that my infectious diseases class came to life
Would have been nice if you worked this part of your story into your Click Bait headline 'Risk for contracting the bubonic plague is extremely low as long as the proper precautions are taken' . You don't surpise me ABC.
That’s nuts! 🐿
Just when you thought this year couldn't possibly be more fun?!?!!
🤣🤣🤣 You people are nuts.
What's wrong with you people ⁉️ You are trying to scare people to death.
I call bullshit. I'm sick of the lies and fearporn. Wake TF up ppl. God gave us an immune system. I for one trust in that.
More Bullshit
How did they end up testing the squirrel?
😂😂😂
Uh-oh.
JessicaGirardo Oh great! Just what we need.
And the hits just keep coming
Darlyndd1 Much ado about nothing.
Not news. Rodents test positive for Yersinia pestis all the time in North America. I don't know how many times I had camping plans rearranged in the Angeles National Forest because a campground was closed when a squirrel was found with plague. Enough with the PanicPorn.
squirrels lives matter
Covid-19, Racism, and Bubonic Plague..Oh God, please have Mercy among his children.
So did the squirrel pop along to his local doc after feeling unwell?!
These squirrels are out of pocket.
Well Shit...
They must have used the PCR test.
2020 can fuck right off.
What do you expect with all those homeless people?
This is intentionally misleading. The bubonic plague never left CO or Utah or a bunch of other places. Just stop the scare tactics already.
Of course. Because 2020.
talk about fear mongering this is all over the news. when I lived in Colorado 12 years ago the state dropped to antibiotic food for the prairie dogs because of bubonic plague
New level in Jumanji
Remember when Tigers were testing positive for COVID?
Nothing else to do but test squirrels?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🐿😁
2020!
Thankfully we have a cure for that.
Makes sense this year.
Darn.virus is climbing trees
This is NORMAL in nature folks... Don't fall for the garbage panic story from the media.
No information in the article on what led to the squirrel being tested in the first place.
Thanks Obama!!!!
CosmicActorVist Poor thing...
The squirrel had to wait in a fake line that ABC had people pretend to wait in for the cameras so they could produce more FakeNews.
So are we testing animals to prevent disease spread to humans? Like bat to human?
All the squirrels I'd ever seen in Colorado looked like this. It must be one of them illegal alien squirrels from south of the border. Colorado should build a wall and make New Mexico pay for it!
What happened to the Murder Hornets? Did I miss the Murder Hornets?
🚨 payshhh steer clear lol
Jetzt reichts aber soll es darauf abzielen die Tiere alle zu töten? ihr seid irre geworden. hört auf mit dem Corona - und Krankheitenwahn
I mean... is testing squirrels for the plague pretty common?
I wanna know how did squirrel get bubonic plague? They just said there was bubonic plague in China. So how did it make it to a squirrel in Colorado from China? Who is doing this?!?!?
Thats nothing new in CO. Its been around forever
Diversion. 2, 987
KaiserPhenx 2020 will not leave us be
THE WHAT NOW
I’m glad they found it, but who’s running around testing squirrels?
Right in my backyard... Super Duper!!!
🐮 💩
Right on talk about going squirrelly!
Fake news
123limabean It's beginning to look a lot like Deathmass.
why not? ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ 2020
Sure it's 2020 why not?
Best close up shop and hide
This crap is always circulating somewhere in wild animals. So please go ahead and shut up with this fear nonsense. What the hell can the public do with that information anyways?
This is not surprising, the plage never went away we just figured out how soap works.
Well, there's a solution on how to handle the squirrel
LanieWalters I am officially announcing that this shit isn't new. It's just overflow from the same old shit ABCnews.go is full of. As you were, thank you.
Don't eat him.💁
Is that him, ABC? Shoot him..with a rifle........not a camera.....
Any bets that Trump's criminal accomplices will hoard all the tetracycline?
This is what is coming next! The Plaque!
That's it, I'm moving to the moon.
Is it right that it wasn’t a squirrel after all but the love child of Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz being raised by Devin Nunes and it wasn’t Bubonic Plague but an advanced case of Rabies.
Lovely, just lovely! What’s next? The 2nd coming? Dear Lord 🙏🏻
😳😳🥺🥺
THE END IS NIGH! IT IS THE BEGINNING OF THE ADORABLE END!!!
No more road kill stew for the rednecks...lol
msm is the biggest joke lol
ColleenB123!!
Slow the testing down please!
Really? That's nuts.
Good thing we already have medication for that!
WHAT
Poor reporting. How about finding out why a random squirrel was even tested.
how
If you have a second, would you mind covering some *news* here and there (not to interfere with your squirrel stuff!)
GriffCovfefe was he Asymptomatic like all the other squirrels?
Shut down the nation again!
_dieuoff C'était obligé ça ? Genre, on a pas assez de fléaux à combattre ?
Because 2020 couldn’t possibly get any more horrifying!
It’s not the first time CO has had plague squirrels. It’ll be okay.
More FAKE BS MSM.... 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤬
I'm sure when the squirrel dies, the state of Colorado will name him Chipper McSweeney, male, age: 31 and report that he died of COVID-19.
the plague, as well as the hantavirus, are fairly common in western states . . .
This isn't as scary as it sounds. The plague has always still existed in the wild.
gtconway3d I really thought it would have been mice or raccons that caught it first...I guess I lost the bet.
TonyBakercomedy
Ps tvchiquita stay away from the squirrels!
Please just stop! 😭😭😭 We need a day or two to take a breath. I can't wait until this year is over.
Is it next event Libs prepared? Are we done with Covid and riots/looting/systematic racism events already? 🤮🙄 i don’t believe a word MSM is saying.
gabe_traffic stop licking your balls you don’t know what you might catch ?
Bucketsince88
Bingo! I’ve got a Bingo here!
They should test your network, you guys probably gave the squirrel it
Did they just find him hanging out on a wire and decide hey let’s test him for a Plague from medieval times or what? WTF people - wake up.
RobertaSotgiu is that you, Sis? 😚
Squirrels must now wear a mask.
hjr3rd That's just nuts
Wahahahahahahah! Just like the time abc used videos from Italy to make it look like NYC hospitals were over run by covid patiences 👍🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼
Bruh how did they line that little guy up for testing wtf
Hide your nuts! They will be in short supply since healthy squirrels will be hoarding them during squirrel lock downs!
TreySmith73
Will they have the murder hornets with them?
gtconway3d Not now, 2020, we're busy !
CORONAVIRUS, MURDER HORNETS, SQUIRREL PLAGUE....THE TRIFECTA OF DISEASES 🤣
Stop it
Prairie dogs also carry plague in the USA.
Stay afraid Sheeple.......stay afraid..... Or maybe🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 Shut off the damn tv, strap your common sense back in and think for yourself. But hey, keep wearing those masks....
A squirrel is just a rat in a fancier coat. 🤮
good maybe the left can demonize squirrels now instead of law enforcement officers
Thank god that squirrel wasn't found in Northern Florida. It may have been someone's lunch.
Welcome to 2020. I certainly didn't have Bubonic Plague on my Bingo card.
I have lived in Colorado for 20 years. It is a known fact that the gopher population here has it as well, and has had it for decades. This is nothing new. Nice try at the media pushing fear mongering though.
PlagueSquirrel vs MurderHornets EnjoyTheShow 🍿😎🍿
From July 7th - 'the apparent outbreak of bubonic plague that has hit China is not of dire concern, according to the World Health Organization' .... So it's 0-for-2 as far as WHO and pandemics go.
Cool cool. We were getting bored.
This is a great article, if I want to learn about the History of the Plague, how it’s transmitted, & what animals can be infected. This article is a shitty & piss poor article if you want to learn how this squirrel was identified & then tested for the plague. BubonicPlague
Don't tell anybody that armadillos commonly carry the plague.
That's nothing new in my part of the world. Rabbits have been found to have the plague. We also have watch out for Huntavirus.
Get the fuck outta here with this bullshit.
ABC News has gone to the squirrels
This happens fairly often, especially in the southwest.
If we would just stop all this testing it will quickly be down to nothing and just go away like a miracle! Testing creates cases haven't you heard?
Bubonic plague is endemic in animal populations and is found now and then. Because fleas are everywhere.
Uh, that’s random. Squirrels. And of all millions of them they found that one
Yep. Nature is fighting back.
If they didn’t test it, there wouldn’t be a plague! Why did they do that?
Wondered what they would present to us next? Normal year looks like to me.
stephontiv be careful with your squirrel friends 😳😳😳
Mother nature is firing all guns, if one thing doesn't work add another. Think she knows Trump is in charge?
We’ve known for years that rodents carry the bubonic plague. But yeah continue to drum up fear and push for shut downs on the uneducated masses
Lets all avoid eating squirrels
gtconway3d Holy Crap!
Washington Plague Squirrels
Stop with this bullshit please
Why not report actual news? This is much more of a real issue that needs addressed. Not some squirrel with the bubonic plague.
I went on a nature walk in the Lake Tahoe area 45 years ago, there was a sign stating “bubonic plague” in the squirrel population. We didn’t take that trail. I made it out alive and I still got to vote in person.
Open season on squirrels? 💥🔫
Here we go again with more fear mongering...mandatory testing of all squirrels or we can’t leave our houses...
How did they decide to test this squirrel?
Does anyone actually believe this? Lol
How the fuck did they knew that was a sick squirrel 🐿 in order to examine it ?
RosieM1919 That would mean the squirrel's fleas are the carriers?
And I'm sure you will take full political advantage of it - that is if anyone listens to you any longer!
FakeNews
gtconway3d Nope, didn’t make my 2020 card.
2020 can go fxck itself
Bet you anything Trump appoints the plague-stricken squirrel as his senior science advisor within a week.
listo, seria todo, noh vimoh.
Be careful out there, 43SquareMiles, 2020 is drunk.
Yeah, that is where it lives. Anyway, has trump answered for the russians paying to kill our troops? Has he got a plan to stop this virus besides denial? Report on that, because a squirrel isnt going to kill me.
Bubonic plague is bacterial and not the threat it once was. Don’t this alarm you, friends
Off to buy more toilet paper.
So, do we now have to wear a squirrel skin cap with a mask?! 😂
We have been dealing with rodents and plague for years no one has done nothing!! Now there’s mass hysteria on the rise over this lol! Here’s my point:
I received a bubonic plague vaccine 50 years ago when I joined the army. Do ya think I am still covered?
Squirrels are not being tested to keep the number of cases low.
Not now squirrels with Bubonic Plague
Remember squirrels are Rodents that bring Bubonic Plague
That’s not a good sign
Why did they test it in the first place To see if the injection they gave it worked
I wonder what SenatorCollins thinks of this 😂
Is this like the killer bee that was supposed to terrorize us in the state of Washington a couple months ago...but just disappeared...?
Should I ask what prompted testing a squirrel for the plague? is that just something we do now?
Yep stay indoors or you might get sick
It was only a matter of time, its been verified in the wild rodent population in national parks all over the west
This is not new. There are parts of California and Arizona where signs warning of plague among squirrel populations have been posted for years.
Right now realDonaldTrump and PressSec are trying to come up with a few lines to spin this that Obama caused it and the squirrel is a relation of Biden
gtconway3d Public health officials have announced that a large number of Americans have tested positive for stupidity.
This is rare but NOT unusual occurrence in Central & Western, nothing to see hery, truly. It happens every year. There are reservoirs of bubonic plague around the world, generally in hot dry, rural places. Most likely, 1-6 Americans will get it this year & be fine w/antibiotics.
Where is it coming from?
Note dates of Black Plague: 1665-66* (triple 6 year) 'National Geographic is owned by Walt Disney, the parent company of ABC News.' Recall that Disney logo has been found to have stenographic *triple 6. Disney is long known to be associated with occult & Illuminati symbolism.
juliabhaber Let it loose in the WH.
Can 2020 get even more bizarre? 🐿
I doubt it
Guess what FakeNews, patriots in the military know every FF you're going to try. Nothing will stop your demise. Patriots are in control. Suck it
Oh for fucks sake!!!!!
Crap
2020 is 👇
I didn’t know squirrel testing was a thing. We just shoot them to keep out of the bird feeders.
Good thing that squirrel went in for testing - I hope his family will be ok.................................. Is this a C-H-I-N-A squirrel?
Stop using test kits from China.
Not uncommon in CO. We don't get our panties in a bunch about it. So fucking stupid to report on this ABC.
2020 is shaping up to be quite the year
How often do squirrels get tested for the bubonic plague? And why was it tested? More Fear Mongering from the propaganda arm of the Democrat (Communist) party.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 😭🐿
That’s fucking awesome! It’s just what we need right now.
It happened already years ago on 2017, Arizona Stop the fearmongering bullshit.
Why are we testing random squirrels?
I am done with 2020. What's next an Asteroid.
While I wont say this is fear mongering it not nearly like what it sounds like Bubonic Plague is found all the time in Colorado, especially in the groundhog population.
They recently had a human case of Bubonic plague in China along with a strain of the Swine Flu.
This is not news, sheesh.
Seriously! This is the next wave. Come on already!
gtconway3d
So now the plague is responsible for higher chinese flu rates? 🤣🤣🤣
Thats super normal... why the hysteria?
Prairie dogs in Colorado carry it all the time. This is an obvious fear push. Get fucking bent, Disney.
gtconway3d For all the people trying to make a cute squirrel rescue/adoption video for The Dodo.
Uuhhhh...mommy?
We really can’t catch a break out here
RhondaBarket Did the squirrel have to wait 3 days for his results while he quarantined?
Everything that comes from your network IS the bubonic plague.
Squirrels Lives Matter!!
Aw, nuts!!
Did they mention that this happens every season and across several species? Like cotton tail rabbit, prairie dog, marmot..... FearPorn
Another case for injecting disinfectants.
The Coronavirus is the modern day version of the bubonic plague. Both infect and can kill the very same people who carry the same DNA gene marker. It’s called the “These People are Sick” in the head gene. POTUS will cure them if they choose or they can take easy way out.
Just to be clear, plague is endemic in Co, Az, Nm, Ut. It’s always there especially near the 4 corners region and is a constant problem around flagstaff.
Omg STOP IT. STOP TRYING TO SCARE PEOPLE. Plague has never gone away, and exists in rodents in western USA and elsewhere. Also, it’s treatable with antibiotics.
Im a disabled Combat Vet calling ATTENTION 2 the massive FRAUD in the VETERANS FIDUCIARY PROGRAM! Countless victims are being robbed(by inside employees&con artistsall levels-theyre even HELPING a felon rob ME)of their benefits, rights&voice!PLEASE HELP STOP THIS ABUSE & retweet
It's nothing...it will be gone for Easter !!
How can one squirrel get it?
gtconway3d Wonder what'll befall us next? Didn't think I'd die quite like this. MAN!!!
I love how you guys are now just looking for things to try and scare us with. This is sad.
You guys don't even try anymore do you.. Are we that stupid?
2020 really does suck, is cursed and has a festering hurricane cloud over it all at once.
I did a double-take thinking this was from TheOnion
Best wishes little fella. Speedy recovery. SquirrelLivesMatters
Why are they testing squirrels?
Who saw the squirrel and said “We need to test it for something.” I mean gotta be thousands of squirrels.
Didn't have that on my 2020 bingo card.
Public health officials have announced that COVID-19 is one of the biggest scams the world has ever seen.
gtconway3d Turn that squirrel loose in the white house
If only he had been wearing a mask....
marinajundiai
***ABC News tomorrow: 'Govt mandates face-masks for squirrels. Tree climbing is banned. All bird-tables are closed' ***
Shut OFF the MSM news! It itself, is a PLAGUE!!!
Awesome, we just need it to have one more disease 😷 to complete our collection for 2020. 🤦♀️
I was stationed at Fort Carson for 3 years. Anyone on station had to get vaccinated against the Bubonic plague. The place is over run with prairie dogs that carry it in the regular. So basically F¥€|This squirrel, Johnny come lately wannabe.
How about testing protestors and looters
I dare say the Bubonic plague is not limited to one lone squirrel. BubonicPlague
Wtf?
. . A.B.C. ? . A LWAYS ? B EING ? C RIMINAL ? .
Your endless fear porn is laughable it this point.
Lord Jesus Christ 🙏 have mercy upon us. We truly are living in the last days.
Man it doesn’t get any better than this running out of popcorn gotta run to the store unmasked and pick some more up 🤣 still can’t stop laughing maybe he got stung by a murder hornet 🐝 😂🤣😂🤣
Seriously are these people on crack 🙄🤦🏻♀️
Good thing that squirrel went to the doctor when it wasn't feeling good
Ya Sureeee ABC 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the Laugh tho. fk that made my whole day!!!
Why would they think to test for the plague anyway
Just so happens the black death has been around for centuries, never really went away. Good thing is it's treatable with today's medicine.
Someone goofed up and pushed 'the plaque' out of order...
VGKnightinArmor 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🦠
We have been talking about this at work for the last week or so. The war for hygiene must be won!!
Going to be difficult to get all the other squirrels to wear masks.
Ok my 2020 Bingo card did not have this
Bet it was those darn prairie dogs
Trump has order all squirrels to be shot on site by our military. National guard will be activated . Squirrels from overseas will be quarantined for 14 days. And none will be allowed to cross our borders “this virus is worst than COVID-19” Trump said from his bed this morning
Welp. I guess I have to stop feeding the squirrels in my yard. 😭
cc emmaroller
The squirrel ate too much cake. And has sprinkles that were infected. These sprinkles came from sugar cane that was infected. We don't know how the sugar cane got infected by all leads are pointing to a cake boss.
Animal cough or bite .... cough ? If not treated with antibiotics they can die ...so antibiotics is the treatment ?
A very predictable story, given that your Chinese media comrades ran a story just a few days ago about someone having bubonic plague in a remote, desolate province in China. And you wonder why we don't take you seriously...
Better close the country down
just randomly? out of nowhere?
Murder hornets, bubonic squirrels, panty waisted fairy “terrorists”, mannequin murders, bat coins, “drop in the cart” pedo peddling, and even vampires . . . you just can’t make this shit up
What!!?!
That’s not news squirrels and prairie dogs in the southwest constantly have the plague.
That squirrel was humping Mongolian marmots, wasn't it? bubonicplague squirrels 2020worstyear
is just fing ridiculous. Did the CCP call in this BS?
gtconway3d Could they smuggle it into the White House?
So now they’re gonna want to kill all the poor little squirrels this is disgusting smh . Leave the animals alone. Why the fk would they test a squirrel? So ridiculous
Not a big deal. When we lived in SoCal, they had posters all over at the trailhead where we hiked, warning that the squirrels had plague. US takes 1-2 dozen cases a year, and it’s not transmitted by humans. It’s also curable with antibiotics.
Every Year a small of people get infected with bubonic plague from the fleas of forest critters. It is Treatable with Antibiotics;
People the media doesn't engage in fear por...
I call bullshit.
So a squirrel in Colorado walks into a hospital emergency room... I know it's not funny. But we're all going to fucking die.
When I lived in Colorado I remember people saying it was in certain areas. I don’t think it’s anything new. Just another scare tactic.
gtconway3d In a normal year, this would be alarming. But it’s 2020, so this problem will take care of itself. If the plague squirrels don’t get eaten by the swarms of locusts, they’ll be pummeled to death when the sky starts hailing toads.
No, no, no. Can we please finish with covid-19 before taking on bubonic plague? What is the deal with 2020?
gtconway3d It’s endemic. Nothing to see here.
Knew this was coming. Six weeks ago I read about rumors that Xi's lab in Wuhan would release Bubonic Plague next because COVID-19 was soon to run its course. realDonaldTrump Scavino45 VP LouDobbs TuckerCarlson
Swinging rats!
How is it a squirrel can walk into a clinic and get tested for bubonic plague but I can’t get a dam Coronavirus test!🤔
Bubonic plague is endemic to that area. No need to panic.
Come on, 2020!
Here’s some stats that’ll help everyone who as logic. Unlike the NoLogicLeft embrassing pandemonium.
And we already have a cure from some amazing medical history. Look up THIEVES or Onguard Blends of essential oils, SHOWN to have helped prevent death to robbers who didn’t get sick from bubonic.
FEAR PORN.
Fear, need moar fearmongering!
You do know that happens a few times a year in rodents out west, right?
Did they pick the squirrel at random or was it in for it's yearly physical?
That squirrel didn't wear one of our masks... Please retweet my customer could be on our time line.
The cabal is running out of narratives
robineva Did it catch it from the prairie dog colony along the Wonderland Lake/Lee Hill trail? There were always warning signs about them. But prairie dogs don’t interact much outside their own colony. Squirrels, on the other hand, . . .
Ok
Self induced symptom hysteria to begin in 3...2...1
BINGO!!!
Crazy
Why the fuck would anyone be testing a squirrel for the BP? Bullshit!
Awe nuts
Here's an idea - admittedly stolen from a self declared stable genius who surprised doctors when he aced cognitive tests - quit testing the squirrels and there will be no cases.
Why the F would u test a squirrel? And what are the odds u found 1 allegedly with this hahahah you guys are a joke. At the end of the day..when this is all over you are just another citizen
COVID Killer hornets Bubonic squirrels Anything else to pull out of the hat before Nov. 3rd? Journalism is dead The people are the new journalists
gtconway3d Testing F**king squirrels now🙄
How did they find this squirrel to test it?
Seems normal....randomly testing squirrels
Trump has informed the squirrel to not worry. It will just go away.
What happened to the murder Hornets and aliens? Did I miss them?
He was social distancing or wearing a mask?
gtconway3d It’s 2020.
Throw a mask on it and quarantine him. And for the love of donuts keep him six feet apart at the bird feeders.
No one cares. Stay home if you do.
I guess they should stop testing the plague and other infectious diseases in labs in Colorado.... If you can't contain it, stop testing it.
And armadillos? What about them? You just know they're carrying something, look at that armor!
Wow did it go the doctors with a fever and ask for a test.
Armadillos carry plague. Quite normal.
ok so COVID now causes: -diabetes -brain damage -lung damage -leg amputation -rashes in children and we now have swine flu 2.0 coming in from China & a squirrel from Colorado has the bubonic plague..... what other bs do you guys have coming our way? I wanna be prepared lol.
OUCH!
Who had bubonic plague for August?
BS!! Sorry Charlie you have no Consent to lie anymore!!
Well it’s a good thing we already know that it’s a bacteria and we have antibiotics that can wipe it out.
Damn. Prairie Dogs carry plague so it crossed over somehow. Great ☹️
Not uncommon. A few rodents every year year positive in Yosemite. What a suprise! Shitty, fear mongering, tabloid reporting
Adding abc to my list of organizations I’m done with- oh wait, already did...
Ironically, the squirrel was just getting tested for COVID at a drive through when the lab discovered the plague.
Oh please. This isn’t news. There’s always plague out there.
Is Trump going to blame squirrels for this too?
A correr cuando veas, una ardilla.
No corona?
Jeez Louise, when do the locusts arrive?
Damn I can’t even get my Covid test back and y’all out here testing rodents for a treatable disease. Smh 🤦🏻♀️
Ok. Enough is enough.
Maybe if we get enough plagues going these idiots refusing to wear masks will finally reconsider.
Lol Jesus. So they just tracked a random fucking squirrel down and tested it?! Damn crazy ass shit
🤣
💔
gtconway3d Not news. Bubonic plague has been endemic for a century.
Wild animals carry a lot of diseases.
Finally they squirrel uprising has started!!
FFS just get straight to the Alien invasion narrative!
I think we all had Bubonic Plague on our End of the World bingo cards, right?
Now what?
That squirrel wouldn't have bubonic plague if we hadnt tested it. Testing creates virus and plagues according to Trump logic. If we stop testing the U.S. Would be the healthiest country in the world but millions would die.
Let me guess, the squirrel's psychologist found it nuts.
ABC is a lackey for the left. Ever notice how they open EVERY show with how the world is imploding because of COVD19? It’s always Trumps negligence.... pathetic pandering to the Dems
Do health officials always go around checking for bubonic plague in squirrels? On to the next hysteria, right dems? Covid not working enough for ya?
You guys know you're gonna scare people unnecessarily, right ? This is common to find a few animals that have it every year. It's honestly a bit shitty of you.
And a squirrel was tested because....I feel another HOAX coming. LUCIFERIAN LEFT - FAKE NEWS
gtconway3d Maybe this really is Armageddon
SmokeyStafford Well, yes.
I saw an article a couple of weeks ago bubonic plague was surfacing in China
WhenCoronaVirusIsNotStrongEnough
gtconway3d People can't get tested for Covid19, but we're testing SQUIRRELS now?
welp, its time to join the space force and get the heck off this planet.
Are the squirrel tests made in China?
gtconway3d Not now 2020!!’
ABC using secret comms.
Why doesn't it always make top news headlines when we have a bubonic plague case? Like past cases in CO, OR, or the little girl who got it yrs ago from a squirrel? Ohhh, that's right, because it didn't fit the virus fear narrative back then....
Jajaja jajajaj aja hasta cuando ustedes le vana a meter miedo a la gente nadie les cree
I will expect you to carry complete coverage of the massive squirrel roundup and intensive testing of these Colorado squirrels. Will watch for announcements from Colorado officials as well. Presume it will spread? Keep us informed.
And antibiotics will easily take care of it.
Yes here in Colorado the plaque is rampant in the prairie dogs and other wildlife. This is not new or scary. FakeNews fearmongering
What happened to the murder hornets?!
This was true when I went to college in CO around the year 2000. 🤷🏻♂️
Does squirrelphilia exist?
When did it go to China?
We want the murder hornets back.
Come on, man... smh 2020worstyear
All I need is an alien invasion and I have bingo.
I know its awful out here mate. I swear I had to step over 20 people on their way to freezer trucks its that bad. /s
“This is so 2020” but also this isn’t new
This happens every year. I remember getting freaked out about it a decade ago. Now I see this story every year, either a squirrel or a prairie dog or some other rodent animal in that general area. knows this, they are simply terrorizing people
2020 in a nutshell
That’s why you kill squirrels
gtconway3d Oh of course it has! 😳
I'm shaking in my boots! OMG!!!! What will we do What will THEY do What will they think of next
My first question is how they knew to test for bubonic plague in the first place? Did the squirrel walk into the vet ER, and say that it felt poorly? The fact that there was easy access to a bubonic plaque test kit is also a tad unnerving.
Nothing else happening ABC?
Yeah, how is this possible?
Now youre trying to piss off the squirrels too! Youre lucky they cant read your fake news.
2020 hates all of y’all
Now do earth worms 😂😂😂🤦
Holy cow
Just stop it.
Is it more or less contagious then the Wuhanic Plague?
SEAGREENXXX
Now we're talking ! .... (eye roll)
What is the baseline? Why was a squirrel tested? Why the report? Transparency please
Normal, stop the Hype ABC
No one says anything about stopping the stupid testing in labs. Shut down these stupid labs.
gtconway3d I’ve found more dead squirrels in last month in middle of woods maybe?
Knew this was next!
I can't take anymore.
More panic coming your way
SQUIRREL! adhdproblems adhd
gtconway3d
gtconway3d And 2020 strikes again!
This is troubling on a multitude of levels.. mayans
gtconway3d NOT NOW PLAGUE
I’m never leaving my house again.
DebraDuGemini59 Oh boy, the saga continues!
gtconway3d Why not? Anything that could go wrong has this year🤷♀️🤦♀️
HERE WE GO FOLKS,!! WONDER HOW TRUMP HANDLES THE PLAGUE, OR NOT,!!
gtconway3d Of course.
gtconway3d shit, there goes my plans for supper.
MichaelLeahy26
RubyBoobyy
Poor little fellow.
gtconway3d I hate this year. I hate this year. I hate this year.
gtconway3d Good Lord what next?
gtconway3d Oh no 🤦♀️
Fleas on rodents carry it. Didn't we all learn this in school
2020 is a cruise
Year 2020 is the worst.
It’s all realDonaldTrump fault.
Oh for crying out loud, are you even a NEWS company, every day some new bollocks intent on frightening the weak minded. Go and find some REAL news or stop bothering everyone
Sure it did...
I honestly thought this was a joke when I first saw it! notajoke
WaywardWinifred The squirrel probably has better health care than many Americans
WorldWideWob
Where is it raining frogs?
Wha
Lol, it happens almost every year. Bubonic plague is in prairie dogs and the state of Colorado actually treats them for it all the time. It’s NO big deal!!
I’m hazzarding a guess that him upstairs isn’t too happy with the way things are going in the US, what with the anti-Christ in the Whitehouse etc.
MichaelStrike10 if he dies will it be a covid death? asking for a friend
In other news, we're hoping for an alien mothership teeming with Xenomorphs to use our bodies as hosts for their deadly parasites.
WaywardWinifred The plague is treatable with antibiotics. Stop the fearmongering
And y’all thought my Rodents with Bubonic Plague pick for July was crazy
How is this news? The plague has been endemic in the US for well over a hundred years. The only purpose of this tweet is to scare the public and get clicks.
Awesome. Best year ever. Bring on the locusts and frogs.
If Fuck off! was a squirrel.
Trump says that if we don’t test there won’t be any more “cases”.
Bubonic MEANS ANOTHER CHINA INVENTION
Colorado has also announced, all trees will be closed due to social distancing.
WTF
JoeM3476 Cause ya know it's 2020 ... Why Not?
EazyDotSheezy more proof that squirrels are evil
I read years ago, that in US there is 5-10 cases per year of bubonic plague. This is fear mongering.There is a cure for that.
TreyDoyle TreyDoyle how apropos 2020
How did it travel from China?
So what was it about this squirrel that got your attention? Seems very random.
Don’t mess with squirrels!! Ever!! 😂🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
2020 about to seem to last another 3 years.
Please oh not again
2020 is a blizzard in an earthquake enduced volcanic eruption of 💩.
I prefer my squirrels letting me know it's Friday and it's time to dance. We already have two things trying to kill us Covid and Trump do we really need something else. 2020 it's not done with us not even close.
I lived in CO, there are other rodents that carry the plague. It's common knowledge there that some rodents carry it.
And where did it get the bubonic plague from?
Oh, fantastic! 2020 is turning out to be a real banger
Not uncommon. Rodents carry the bacteria & the west sees a half dozen cases a year. 2nd I laugh because reading about the plague they say & I quote, there is no risk of a pandemic because antibiotics cure 90% of plague patients. So it kills 10% & cov19 kills 4% & covid is worse?
“Just sanitize them”works for cov19....
It happens every year here...squirrels, raccoons, prairie dogs....every year!!!
Kudos to the photographer that captured the photo of the squirrel at the exact moment the squirrel realized his medical records had been exposed and his privacy had been violated. The look on his face says it all. Journalism
Here we go again what’s going on in the science labs
2020 keeps getting better and better
Of course it did.
😬
😳 bubonicplague
What else can 2020 throw at us?!
If they wouldn't have tested it, they wouldn't have created the bubonic plague through the test.
This happens every now and again. Y’all calm TF down.
Kill it!
Flat Earth Anti-Science Anti-Intellectualism Dark Age Superstitions Mass Functional Illiteracy And Now PLAGUE?! Come On Civilization! We Need Shared Knowledge Science Open Dialogue Protection of Freedom of Speech and Expression True Multiculturalism Libraries & Healthcare
NeilWMcCabe2 I’m glad the squirrel got himself to the doctor.
Our Great Bill Gates and DR. Fauci have brought the bubonic plague over here now
Just when you thought 2020 couldn’t get worse. Bring in the aliens!
Of course, because 2020.
Hey, why not?😂
Squirrelly lives matter.
Oh.. ABC, it's probably just fakenews
One sick squirrel is news now? Trying to whip up a plague scare, since all the COVID, racism and Trump aren’t enough?
Squirrel’s WHO chief right now.
Coming soon
Oh great, and some idiot will make squirrel stew and we’ll be fucked all over again.
Did he travel to China recently?
Trump was unable to contain this plague!
🙄 again with the fear mongering... Ffs, it's a bacterial disease easily treated with standard antibiotics
ABD Colorado'da bir sincapta 'hıyarcıklı veba' testi pozitiv çıkmış.
Poor guy! Had so much to live for 😭 no more jumping on bird feeders, entertaining aunt Betty on the evening bench trip, or no more making the neighbor dog bark at the window as he stands there and stares him down :(
This isn’t news, on average there are 7-10 human cases of bubonic plague in the U.S. ever year. Don’t pet wild aninals.
It just so happens that out of the million squirrels in the us. The one with BP is tested.
And here we go with the drama!!!! So typical of
If he locked down and wore a mask, this would be a nothingburger
This isn't news! Squirrels in parts of the US have fleas that carry Bubonic plague. So do prairie dogs! 🤦🏻♀️
'Moose is devastated.' Per Russian ambassador pictured here with melania trump, rocky and Nunez 'bullwinkle'
Nothing new. Scientists think that plague bacteria circulate at low rates within populations of certain rodents without causing excessive rodent die-off. These infected animals and their fleas serve as long-term reservoirs for the bacteria.
Chinese food markets have put a bid in for the body ....
AbusiveProstate
The squirrel, through its attorney denies it has bubonic plague.
My question is what are they doing testing squirrels
So it's final 2012 just came 8yrs later so the Mayans just got it a bit wrong.
The plague has always been around and rodents carry it. Quit fear mongering the public.
the last i heard the plague was somewhere in china
Tell him to wash his paws
2020: What evil fuck took over the simulation controls?
So squirrels can get tested easier than humans?
Fucking Awesome
Who in the hell tracked down a gd squirrel in CO and saw he had a cough and tested it for the PLAGUE. Is this the Crusades?
Come on 2020. Enough😧
ahh nuts, there goes 2020
Oh shit, here we go again
