After Eating An Infected Marmot, A Mongolian Teenager Dies Of Bubonic Plague

LINK

After a Mongolian couple died from the plague last year, which they caught from ingesting raw marmot meat, a 15-year-old boy in western Mongolia has died of bubonic plague after eating an infected marmot, the country's health ministry has announced.

According to the AP, plague is found in marmots and several other wild animals in parts of Mongolia, northwestern China and eastern Russia. An official announcement has recently been issued warning the residents of Bayannur region of Inner Mongolia to avoid eating marmot and to report dead animals. The warning will reportedly last through the end of 2020.

Now all we need is a catapult and a fort under siege to fling the plague-ridden corpse into.

Eating Marmots is weird and all but we eat some strange arse animals in South Louisiana too. They must not be as clean as us when it comes to cleaning animals and preparing the meat though because this shite never happens down here

A resurgence of that would just seem to cap off 2020.

It never went away. It's present here in the United States.

I think that was what people catch every once in a while in Yellowstone National Park.

Could be something else bad though. I can't remember.

Bubonic Plague


Bubonic plague? Which type? The one where you basically bleed out internally in about 24 hours? Or the one with the "buboes"?

That’s HPS

The plague does pop up in isolated cases every now and then though. Most of the cases are in Africa and certain parts of SA and Asia.

Hmmm...I wonder...


Then there is septicemic plague and pneumonic plague, all caused by Yersinia pestis.
