The disease is transmitted from animals to humans.
Plague infects wild rodents, especially rats, and is transmitted animal to animal and occasionally to humans by flea bites.
As infected rats die, their body temperature drops, and hungry fleas jump to nearby sources of warmth and liquid blood.
There is more than 200 different rodents and species that can serve as a host.
These include domestic cats and dogs, squirrels, chipmunks rabbits, camels, sheep, ticks, and humane lice.
A new host is usually another rat, but in crowded cities that are extending into the countryside the next host could very easily be a human.
Bubonic plague has a1-15% mortality rate in treated cases and a 40-60% mortality rate in untreated cases.
Septicemic plague has a 40% mortality rate in treated and 100% in untreated cases
Pneumonic plague has 100% mortality rate if not treated within 24 hours of infection
