The Pueblo Department of Public Health and Environment, in collaboration with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, is currently investigating a human case of plague in Pueblo. Initial test results have come back positive, leading to further investigation into the matter.
Plague, caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, is transmitted by fleas and commonly cycles among wild rodents. This disease can infect humans and pets through flea bites, contact with infected animals, or inhaling droplets from infected individuals or animals.
Common symptoms of plague include sudden fever, chills, severe headache, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting, and overall feelings of illness. Swollen lymph nodes are another typical symptom of this disease.
