No way! My uncle died from the plauge,and he was from AZ!
He had been rabbit hunting and somehow had an open wound and got some of the rabbit's blood in it(cross contamination). The rabbit was carring it. I guess the plauge is common in rodents
. Anyway, my uncle became REALLY sick, and the doctor mis-diognosed it. (You never see the plauge, it's just not something you're looking for) He was gone the next day. This happened maybe 20+ years ago.
