Plague can also infect humans and their pets. the ADOT grant. How do people get plague? • Bites of infected fleas • Touching or skinning infected animals (such as prairie dogs, squirrels, rats, and rabbits) • Inhaling droplets from the cough of an infected person or animal (especially sick cats)

Common forms of plague Bubonic plague is the most common form of plague. It usually occurs after the bite of an infected flea. The key feature of bubonic plague is a swollen, painful lymph node, usually in the groin, armpit or neck. Other symptoms include fever, chills, headache, and extreme exhaustion. A person usually becomes ill with bubonic plague 1 to 6 days after being infected. If not treated early, the bacteria can spread to other parts of the body and cause septicemic or pneumonic plague. Septicemic plague occurs when plague bacteria multiply in the bloodstream. Symptoms include high fever, exhaustion, light-headedness, and abdominal pain. Septicemic plague can quickly cause shock and organ failure. Pneumonic plague occurs when plague bacteria infect the lungs. Symptoms include high fever, chills, cough, difficulty breathing, and coughing up bloody mucus. Pneumonic plague is almost always fatal if not treated rapidly.

If you develop symptoms of plague, see a health care provider immediately. Plague can be treated successfully with antibiotics, but an infected person must be treated promptly to avoid serious complications or death.

Protect yourself if you live in an area where plague occurs: Protect you and your family Protect your pets 1. Eliminate nesting places for rodents around homes, 1. Treat dogs and cats for fleas regularly. sheds, garages, and recreation areas by removing 2. Keep pet food in rodent-proof containers. brush, rock piles, trash, and excess firewood. 3. Take sick pets to the veterinarian promptly. 2. Avoid picking up or touching dead animals. 4. Do not allow pets to hunt or roam in rodent 3. Wear gloves if you must handle sick or dead animals. habitat, such as prairie dog colonies. 4. Report sick or dead animals to the local health department or law enforcement officials. 5. Do not let pets sleep in the bed with you. This has been shown to increase your risk of getting plague. 6. Use insect repellent that contains DEET to prevent flea bites.
