I’ve never heard of illegals bringing it. It pops up here every once in a while - usually in the Southwest.

And the Southwest is where the illegals enter the country. I seem to remember that fleas can spread this to humans, but then they could also get it from humans.

I always wonder why it doesn’t occur in Portland which is like freaking flea central. It seems to prefer rodents in dryer climates of the arid and semi arid parts of the west.

Yes, but I just read a news story about how the illegal criminal trash has been leaving their poor DOGS at the border to starve. Why on earth they would bring their faithful pooches to a foreign country and think they could bring them in is a level of stupid I have rarely encountered. But the point is, those dogs are surely carrying fleas and therefore could be a vector for U.S. kitties to have bubonic infected fleas. Just another reason to close the border, El Retardo.
