Plague Fatality In Arizona
An autopsy revealed that an Arizona biologist who was found dead on Nov. 2 had contracted the pneumonic plague after handling a cougar corpse. What do you think?
Charlie Thornton,
Pasta Maker
"Exactly what precautions can the rest of us take? Avoiding cougar carcasses? Is that very realistic?"
Mary Benning,
Mattress Salesperson
"The resurgence of the plague is probably because God is angry with mankind. Either that or because the bacterium, Yersinia pestis, is found in rodents and their fleas and is prevalent in many areas of the world."
Haitham Tahir,
Book Binder
"Did he have a headache and fatigue and stuff? Shit, I'm going to die."
