1. Understanding the Silent Threat
Bubonic plague was detected in the Oregon resident. It is caused by the plague bacterium accompanied by symptoms like fever, headache, weakness, and painful or swollen lymph nodes.

Yersinia pestis - the villain behind the bubonic plague, brings a variety of plague flavors like fever, headache, and chills that might give you shivers, along with weakness. Wondering how this uninvited guest entered your body? The tiny, annoying creatures known as fleas are to be blamed for the same who spread the germs rapidly with their bites.
