Y. pestis can cause several forms of plague: bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonic—the latter of which can be aggressive and quickly fatal. However, the pathogen is generally easily treated by antibiotics. In the US, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendsthat anyone exposed to the pathogen should undergo an immediate seven-day post-exposure antibiotic prophylaxis treatment. Additionally, though pneumonic plague is spread via respiratory particles from coughing, it is not considered highly infectious; it requires direct, close contact for the bacteria to be transmitted.

If you want to make an omelette, you’re going to have to break a couple eggs. The eggs are yours, by the way. And the omelette is going to destroy your house when I cook it. And I’m not going to pay you for anything. In fact, pay me for the eggs.

Beating your wife before you leave.

Traditional conservative values.

But they have shopping carts that can go up escalators.

He’s not in free fall. He’s killing it. He’s doing whatever he wants with no regard for the law. Imagine what he’ll do in the next 2 years without accountability.

You are right. It’s a known bacteria. Read the article.

The articles says it’s not a virus:

Darya Shipilova, an employee at the Anti-Plague Research Institute in Shelekhov, was exposed to the bacteria after she accidentally broke a test tube containing the pathogen while she was collecting samples, the Kyiv Independent reported.

Why does it say virus in the title?
