  1. Pneumonic plague results when Yersinia pestis (Y. pestis) bacteria are inhaled and lodged in the lungs.

    When Y. pestis accumulates in the blood and causes septic shock, the resulting disease is called septicemic plague.

    When Y. pestis enters the body through a break in the skin, the resulting disease is called bubonic plague.

  15. A human #plague death was confirmed in northern #Arizona. What to know

    by Stephanie Innes, Arizona Republic
    July 11, 2025

    "A human has died of pneumonic plague in northern Arizona, Coconino County health officials confirmed July 11.

    "The case is not connected to a recent die-off of prairie dogs in the area, officials said.

    "The death of the Coconino County resident marks the first recorded pneumonic plague death in the county since 2007, officials with Coconino County Health and Human Services said in a statement.

    "The county's confirmation of the death came after Northern Arizona Healthcare issued a statement that one of its patients had a presumptive positive diagnosis of Yersinia pestis, which is the bacterium that causes plague.

    "The person recently died in the Flagstaff Medical Center emergency department on the day the person sought treatment, the statement said.

    "The Northern Arizona Healthcare statement says that 'despite appropriate initial management and attempts to provide life-saving resuscitation, the patient did not recover' and says that Northern Arizona Healthcare team is 'saddened by this loss of a community member.'

    "Citing patient privacy, officials with Northern Arizona Healthcare and Coconino County said they would not be releasing additional information about the patient who died.

    "The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says plague in humans is relatively rare, with about seven human cases reported annually across the country.

    "Pneumonic plague is a severe lung infection, according to Coconino County health officials. A 2015 CDC report characterized it as the least common of the three main forms of plague. The other two main forms are bubonic and septicemic.

    "The CDC says Yersinia pestis is transmitted by fleas, cycles naturally among wild rodents and that humans usually get the plague after being bitten by an infected rodent flea or by handling an infected animal. People may also become infected through exposure to sick pets, especially cats, the CDC says.

    "County officials are investigating a recent sudden die-off of prairie dogs in the Townsend Winona area northeast of #Flagstaff that may be caused by plague, but county officials on July 11 said in their statement that the prairie dog case and the human plague death are 'not related.' "

    "Coconino County Health and Human Services recently received a report of a prairie dog die-off on private land northeast of #Flagstaff.

    "A statement from Coconino County said a sudden die-off of prairie dogs and rodents can be an indicator of plague, an infectious disease that can affect humans and animals.

    "Trish Lees, communications manager for Coconino County, said the number of prairie dogs that have died was unknown."

    "To prevent exposure to plague, Coconino County recommends:

    - Avoid fleas and use veterinarian-approved flea treatments on pets.
    - Keep them on a leash and out of areas known to be inhabited by wild rodents.
    - Report prairie dog, rodent and rabbit die-offs to Coconino County at 928-679-8756 or 928-679-8760.
    - Prevent rodent infestations by removing brush, rock piles, trash and lumber from around homes and outbuildings.
    - Avoid contact with wild animals.
    - Use an insect repellent and tuck pant cuffs into your socks to help prevent flea bites.
    - Do not camp next to rodent holes and avoid sleeping directly on the ground.
    - Be aware that cats are highly susceptible to plague.
    - If your pet has a high fever, a loss of appetite, lethargy, a cough or eye drainage, contact a veterinarian immediately.
