I thought they changed the genus from Yersinia to Pasturella. Antibiotics have worked, but if it ever becomes a superbug it could be a nightmare.
Naw, other way around. Alexandre Yersin was credited as the discoverer after quite a bit of scientific squabbling. I believe that took place in 1967. When I was studying microbiology in the early 70's there were certain retrograde professors of mine who refused to go along. A Japanese scientist named Kitasato Shibasaburō was a rival claimant for primacy.
