(AP) — A plague outbreak has killed 40 people on the island nation of
Madagascar, with 119 people diagnosed with the bacterial disease since
August ...Two people have been diagnosed and one has died in the
capital, Antananarivo. The World Health Organization fears the plague
outbreak may spread rapidly through Madagascar’s largest and densely
populated city, worsened by the country’s poor health care system ...WHO
said a national task force has been set up to manage the outbreak, with
the cost of the project reaching $200,000. The international health
organization said it is working with the Red Cross and Madagascan health
authorities to control the disease ...The plague is a disease
carried by rodents and spread by fleas. Humans are most often infected
when they are bitten by fleas, causing swelling of the lymph nodes and
sometimes pneumonia ...Combatting the disease in Madagascar has been
made more difficult by a high level of resistance to an insecticide
used to control fleas, according to WHO ...Early treatment and antibiotics have been effective in curing the disease, according to WHO ...The
bubonic form of the disease, which causes swollen lymph nodes, can be
treated with antibiotics. The deadlier pneumonic form, which attacks the
lungs, may kill patients within 24 hours, warn health officials.
Pneumonic plague is easily spread through coughing but WHO says only two
percent of cases reported in Madagascar have been from this highly
infectious form of the disease ...The first case of the outbreak was
found in a village in a district two hours away from Antananarivo. The
man was positively diagnosed on Aug. 31 and died days later, according
to WHO. Since then 16 other districts have reported cases of plague ...The
plague is most famous for killing millions of people in Europe during
the Middle Ages, according to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. Plague infections still occur throughout the world, mainly
in parts of Africa and Asia ...RECOMMENDED BY RYOT STAFF

[SIDEBAR:
I wanted to send my sons to Cuba to learn how to be real doctors - those that can heal the sickness in the earth world, wherever there is sickness. Why? Because I studied medicine beginning in the 1960s, and learned what the REAL AGENDA was-is. Same AGENDA$: MD, JD, PhD. Can't make the up-up-up a ladder of ~ CONTAMINATED, CORRUPTED, PARANOID, METZITZAH B'PEH / CIRCUMCISION$,
vile evil imagination$ of the species "Homo Sapiens".
DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS?
EQUAL SUM MEASURE?!
