Plague is a severe bacterial infection caused by *Yersinia pestis*. It primarily affects rodents but can be transmitted to humans, often leading to serious illness if not treated quickly. It is most common in rural and semi-rural areas of Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Track Plague activity and outbreaks specific to Wyoming.
Open Web AppPlague has historically caused devastating pandemics, most notably the 'Black Death' in the 14th century, which killed an estimated 30-50% of Europe's population. The causative bacterium, *Yersinia pestis*, was identified by Alexandre Yersin in 1894 during the Hong Kong pandemic, greatly advancing understanding and treatment of the disease. Its history underscores its profound impact on human civilization and public health.
Plague primarily spreads through the bites of infected fleas that have fed on infected rodents. Direct contact with infected animal tissues or fluids, such as during hunting or butchering, can also transmit the disease. Pneumonic plague can uniquely spread from person to person through respiratory droplets when an infected individual coughs.
