The treatment of cats is a indication how how stupid and totalitarian the country is. The people do whatever the government tells them. Like the killing of the babies, political imprisonment,torture, poison food exports, polluted cities,...I thought that obvious.

>People believe what the government tells them and that is why they are abandoning more and more family pets.
That sez it all folks, after all, everyone gets public education in China.<
When I look at whom we have left running in our primaries I have a very difficult time believing that anyone is less intelligent than Americans.

Louis Pastuer discovered that the source of the disease was the fleas, often found on rats. Therefore, the transmission of the Bubonic Plague was from fleas to humans.

These people abandon their babies in the streets and the world is concerned about CATS???? Uh oh! You better be careful. Cats are babies to their owners. Like me! ;o) I replaced my husband with two kitties, and they're much more faithful and loving than he was. LOL!

I can't remember the exact title of the book, something about "ports" and "plague" but it's a good read, and detailed the third pandemic, which arose in China, in the 1890's. Credited with isolating the bacterium were Alexandre Yersin of France, and Shibasaburo Kitasato of Japan. Much of the book I read online.
For many years (a few generations) Kitasato was given the bulk of the credit, but as it was later found that he did not in fact "isolate" the bacterium enough (there were other bacteria present), the credit was given to Yersin.
From the lazy, non-bookmarked/lost all old bookmarks man's reference guide http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubonic_plague
Though both investigators reported their findings, a series of confusing and contradictory statements by Kitasato eventually led to the acceptance of Yersin as the primary discoverer of the organism. Yersin named it Pasteurella pestis in honor of the Pasteur Institute, where he worked, but in 1967 it was moved to a new genus, renamed Yersinia pestis in honor of Yersin.
