Plague: Recognition, Treatment, and Prevention.

Ruifu Yang1.   

Abstract

Plague is caused by Yersinia pestis and is not commonly encountered in clinics, although natural plague foci are widely distributed around the world. Y. pestis has been listed as a category A bioterrorism agent. A neglected diagnosis will cause severe consequences. Therefore, this minireview briefly introduces the current understanding on Y. pestis and then focuses on practical aspects of plague, including clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, to alert clinicians about this notorious disease.
