Interesting results when I check Google news for Tularemia and San Jose:
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&q=tularemia%20san%20jose&sa=N&tab=wn
Two findings. One is the report that Tularemia was detected in San Jose.
The next report from 2 weeks ago is bizarre:
Farmers hope for a cold, hard winter and an outbreak of tularemia, a rodent disease that would reduce the vole population to more manageable numbers.

Hmmmm this is interesting:
Pakistan's Lower House of Parliament on Tuesday passed unanimously a resolution imposing a compulsory three-month rescue and relief training for youth in the face of possible threats of natural disaster and terrorism.
The resolution, tabled by treasury lawmaker Asiya Azeem, also provided that besides necessary training, the civil defence institution must be revived.
The resolution was passed during a debate currently underway on relief and rehabilitation measures for North-West Frontier Province and Kashmir under Pakistan's control.
The House has already passed two resolutions -- one offering condolence to bereaved families of the quake tragedy and the other expressing gratitude to the world community for extending timely relief and financial assistance.
A powerful earthquake, measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale, struck NWFP and Kashmir on October 8.
The quake has so far killed more than 57,000 and injured over 70,000 people, besides rendering over 3 million homeless.
