As I recall the pneumonic plague is not spread by fleas.

For some perspective.
https://www.cdc.gov/plague/maps/index.html
In recent decades, an average of seven human plague cases have been reported each year (range: 117 cases per year). Plague has occurred in people of all ages (infants up to age 96), though 50% of cases occur in people ages 1245. It occurs in both men and women, though historically is slightly more common among men, probably because of increased outdoor activities that put them at higher risk.

I'm all for people being allowed to live and eat as they please, but with today's open border elite insisting that anyone should be able to fly anywhere without restriction, the world needs to insist that China reforms its "local folk health remedy" nonsense. If people from China expect to fly to Seattle, SF or LA, they need to stop eating wild animals in unsafe, unclean conditions. First the new coronavirus, brought to us via pangolins and bats, now this.

Shot of penicillin/erythromycin etc. people get it here every year. Usually transmitted by rodents/fleas. We are the progeny of survivors of the plague. We have a built in defense system

Rodent organs must be cooked thoroughly, don’t they know that?

The United States occasionally has a case, usually in the Southwest.

No pangolins, civets, nor bats were harmed in the development of THIS particular story!

The fleas start it by transmitting the bacteria to humans and and then it spreads from human to human via droplets if/when the infection spreads to the lungs.
