Food & Agriculture

An acute febrile, infectious, highly fatal disease caused by the bacillus Yersinia pestis. It is primarily a disease of rats and other rodents, dogs and cats, and is usually spread to humans by fleas. The uniquely characteristic sign, that gives the disease its name, is the bubo, a hardened subcutaneous lymph node. There is also a pneumonic type in humans, which can be spread directly from person to person by droplet infection. Source: European Union. (references)
