WHO announced over the weekend that China spread fake news about Kazakhstan. The respiratory disease is still COVID-19.

Bubonic plague found in scores of dead squirrels in Colorado
At least 15 dead squirrels were found in a town west of Denver, USA.

Dogs are less susceptible but they can be carriers of the fleas that have the disease.
Jefferson County Public Health recommended eliminating sources of food and shelter for wild animals, avoiding sick or dead wild animals and rodents and consulting with vets about flea and tick control.
“Risk for getting plague is extremely low as long as precautions are taken, “a statement said.
Humans can be infected with plague, chiefly through flea bites or direct contact with blood or tissue.
Plague symptoms include fever, chills, headache, nausea and pain in the lymph nodes which happens between a few days and a week after contact.
The disease can be hard to identify in its early stages because its symptoms are flu-like.
The disease killed tens, maybe hundreds, of millions of people in Europe during the mid-14th century where it was known was the Black Death. There have been periodic outbreaks ever since throughout the world.
An outbreak in Madagascar in 2017 killed 221 people.
Earlier this month, authorities in the Chinese region of Inner Mongolia reported a case of bubonic plague.

The health committee in the city of Bayan Nur issued a Level 3 warning that forbid the hunting and eating of animals that could carry the disease and to report any sick or dead marmots, which is related to the squirrel.
There is no vaccine for the plague but advances in medicine, such as antibiotics, and hygiene as well as better all-round health has meant more recent flare ups of the diseases have had less of an impact and have been able to be contained.
Nonetheless, it’s estimated around 8 per cent of those who contract the plague will die – that’s a higher rate than coronavirus.
“Presently, human plague infections continue to occur in rural areas in the western United States, but significantly more cases occur in parts of Africa and Asia,” the US’ Centres for Disease Control has reported.
Coloradans would be well advised not to get too close to squirrels.

A 15 year-old boy has died of bubonic plague in Mongolia, according to the country's health ministry.
The National Centre for Zoonotic Diseases (NCZD) said the teenager from the western province of Govi-Altai had died from eating marmot meat.
A quarantine has now been put in place on five districts in the province, which shares a border with China.
"The result of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test revealed on Monday night that bubonic plague caused the death of a 15-year-old boy," Dorj Narangerel, a spokesperson for the health ministry, told a press conference.
HEILIGENBLUT AM GROSSGLOCKNER, AUSTRIA - AUGUST 14: A marmot sits on a rock on a mountainside above the retreating Pasterze glacier on August 14, 2019 near Heiligenblut am Grossglockner, Austria. The Pasterze, Austria's largest glacier, has lost over half its volume since 1850 and its tongue, shrinking in both width and depth, has retreated at least 2.6 kilometers. The glacier's retreat is leaving behind exposed land that is giving local flora and fauna new areas to thrive. While the retreat of glaciers across Europe is part of a natural process that began with the end of the Little Ice Age in the mid-19th century, the acceleration of the melting since the 1960s is a phenomenon many scientists attribute to human activity that is further warming Earth's climate.

The death follows the news earlier this month of two people testing positive for the disease in the neighbouring province of Khovd.

The NCZD is currently organising a nationwide immunisation programme to stop the spread of the disease.
Last year, a lockdown was imposed in the Mongolian province of Bayan-Olgii after reports that a couple had died from the bubonic plague after reportedly eating raw marmot meat.
Russia has increased patrols in an attempt to stop people hunting marmots near its border with Mongolia.
China issued a warning last week after a suspected case of bubonic plague was discovered in the autonomous region of Inner Mongolia.

There is no vaccine for the bacterial disease. It is transmitted between animals through their fleas, and humans can be infected by flea bites or from touching infected animals.
Symptoms of the disease, known as the Black Death in the Middle Ages, include a fever, swollen lymph nodes and feeling weak.
Advice from the World Health Organisation says an adult can be killed in less than 24 hours if they are not treated with several types of antibiotics.

CCP chinks report other countries' epidemic fast hand fast leg, but cover up their own pandemic. Hypocrite! But hey, this is fake news by CCP to divert attention that WHO wants to inspect the Wuhan lab. Despicable chinks!
