[QUOTE]Originally posted by Kiernan: [QB] One of the fun things about living in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is that you can contract bubonic plague and you don't even need a passport. Santa Fe County has one of the highest rates of the plague in the country. It's so common here that the physicians actually know what to look for. Two summers ago, a couple who live within a few miles of me came down with plague symptoms while on a trip back East. The hospital wasn't expecting it and by the time they figured out it was the plague, the husband had to have part of one leg amputated. They got bubonic plague from their dogs. To be fair to the dogs, it's the rats, mice, and prairie dogs that are the reservoir. The dogs get it from them. [/QB][/QUOTE]
