"The infectious bacterium Yersinia pestis causes the infectious disease plague, which is commonly found worldwide in rats and other rodents. Fleas often serve as common vectors of plague. There are three forms of human plague - bubonic, septicemic and pneumonic."

In December 1970, in Viet Nam, I contracted Yersinia Pestis while getting my vaccinations updated so that I could go on R&R. Instead of going to Hawaii, I spent 23 days in a hospital. Two buddies and I got plague from defective vaccine administered by our government.

It was also (rumored to have been) carried into Syria in truckloads of Saddam's WMDs.

The Syrians probably just offloaded the WMDs in various of their military installations and forgot about them.

OOPS!
