This month, a 38-year-old man died from the bubonic plague in Mongolia’s Zavkhan province after eating marmot meat.
In August, China’s Inner Mongolia region reported two deaths to the deadly disease.
The fatalities prompted authorities to enforce partial lockdowns and quarantine local residents.
In total, Mongolia has recorded 18 suspected cases of the bubonic plague this year.

Officials have said at least 17 out of Mongolia’s 21 provinces have the potential to become a source of a bubonic plague outbreak.

Mongolia has been living with the deadly disease for centuries as the country eats meat from marmots as a delicacy.
The rodent is a carrier of the plague due to infected fleas.

But bans on hunting and trading marmots has not deterred people in Mongolia from consuming the infected meat.

Health experts have said there are only rare cases of human-to-human transmission of the deadly disease.
Dr Michael Head, senior research fellow in global health at the University of Southampton in the UK, told MailOnline: “Bubonic plague is a thoroughly unpleasant ...
“However, it is not going to become a global threat like we have seen with COVID-19.
“Bubonic plague is transmitted via the bite of infected fleas, and human to human transmission is very rare.”

Bubonic Plague was one of the most devastating diseases in human history.

The deadly infection killed around 100million people in the 14th century.

The plague also comes in other forms including the enteric plague, pneumonic plague and septicemic plague.
The bubonic plague is the most common form of the disease that people can get.

Its name originates from the symptoms it causes including painful, swollen lymph nodes or “buboes” in the armpit or groin.

Between 2010 to 2015, there were 584 deaths from the disease and 3,248 reported cases worldwide.
In the Middle Ages, the bubonic plague was referred to as the “Black Death” due to the gangrenous blackening and death of body parts.

An infected person usually becomes ill within two to six days after catching the disease.
Other symptoms include chills, fever, headache, muscle aches and tiredness.
The deadly disease can also affect a person’s lungs causing chest pain, coughs and difficulty breathing.

Pathetic.

Should get an instant pan for posting express articles.

You have a world war 3 every day of the week in that toilet paper excuse of a newspaper.

Op should be ashamed of herself
And aliens... this is one of the lamest newspapers out there. And this OP is just a propagandist at this point.

Bubonic plague is endemic to Mongolia due to its high wild rodent population. Nothing new here just sensationalism

trying to satisfy your ego after an epic chitrol u got from china

It's strange how, until a few years ago, China was the economic miracle and all that people use to talk about, was this. Now, ever since zionist agenda driven america, britain and france have turned their guns on China, that's all you hear from the western media, which is by definition, owned and controlled by zionist-$wines. And off late, ever since india officially became it's white master's main slave in Asia. They too have started the unrelenting campaign of churning out regurgitated bull$hit of western mainstream media. Parroting the same theme of China is a brutal dictatorship, that China oppresses Uyghur Muslims, China created the pandemic of coronavirus.

All but ignoring completely, what sort of fascist regime the indians have as their leadership. How india has suffocated the Sikhs, strangled the Kashmiris, brutalizing the Nagaland people and criminalizing the Christians if they don't tow the line.

For a country that was under the brutal rule of the british empire for well over 200 years. india sure has proven itself worthy of being eternally enslaved to its white masters. Conveniently forgetting the fact that britain was single handedly responsible for the millions of indians dying of starvation during WW2 when british prime minister ordered all the grain harvest shipped to britain to contribute towards their war efforts. Also conveniently forgetting that britain plundered india's wealth, on the back of which, this country actually stands unaffected by the 2008 financial crises and the pandemic.

Bubonic plague, known as the 'Black Death' in the Middle Ages, is one of the most devastating diseases in history, having killed around 100million people in the 14th century.
The Mongolian man was infected with the plague after consuming marmot meat in Khuvsgul province in northern Mongolia last month, reported Chinese state media Xinhua, citing Mongolian provincial department of zoonotic diseases.
A total of 25 people who had close contact with the patient have tested negative for the disease, the officials said.
The country first reported a death caused by the bubonic plague in July, a 15-year-old boy from the western Govi-Altai province.

(CNN)Authorities in the Chinese region of Inner Mongolia have sealed off a village after a resident there died from bubonic plague, a centuries-old disease responsible for the most deadly pandemic in human history.
The death was reported to health authorities in Baotou city on Sunday and the victim was confirmed to be a bubonic plague patient on Thursday, the Baotou Municipal Health Commission said in a statement on its website.
The patient died of circulatory system failure, according to the statement. It did not mention how the patient had caught the plague.
To curb the spread of the disease, authorities sealed off Suji Xincun village, where the dead patient lived, and ordered daily disinfection of homes. All villagers have so far tested negative for the disease, the statement said.
Nine close contacts and 26 secondary contacts of the patient have been quarantined and tested negative, the commission said.
Damao Banner, the district where the village is located, has been put on Level 3 alert for plague prevention, the second lowest in a four-level system, until the end of the year.

Chinese authorities confirm case of bubonic plague in Inner Mongolia
This is the second case -- and first death -- of bubonic plague China has confirmed this year. The previous case was discovered in July in Bayannur, another city in Inner Mongolia, leading to the issuing of another Level 3 alert and the closure of several tourist spots.
Plague, caused by bacteria and transmitted through flea bites and infected animals, killed an estimated 50 million people in Europe during the Black Death pandemic in the Middle Ages.
Bubonic plague, which is one of plague's three forms, causes painful, swollen lymph nodes, as well as fever, chills, and coughing.
The advent of antibiotics, which can treat most infections if they are caught early enough, has helped to contain plague outbreaks, preventing the type of rapid spread witnessed in Europe in the Middle Ages.
But it has not been eliminated it entirely -- and it has made a recent comeback, leading the World Health Organization (WHO) to categorize it as a re-emerging disease.

Common recurrence

Anywhere from 1,000 to 2,000 people get the plague every year, according to the WHO. But that total is likely too modest an estimate, since it doesn't account for unreported cases.
According to 2016 data, the possibility of plague exists on almost every continent, especially the western United States, parts of Brazil, scattered areas in southeast Africa and large swaths of China, India and the Middle East.
In the US, there have been anywhere from a few to a few dozen cases of plague every year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2015, two people in Colorado died from the plague, and the year before there were eight reported cases in the state.

Why is bubonic plague still a thing?

In China, 31 cases of plague were reported between 2009 and 2019, including 12 deaths, according to data released by the National Health Commission.

On Thursday, Baotou authorities warned of a risk of "a human plague epidemic spreading in the city," and urged the public to take extra precautions and seek immediate medical attention if they develop symptoms of fever or coughing.

They also urged people to reduce contact with wild animals while traveling and avoid hunting, skinning or eating animals that could cause infection.

Last month, two cases of bubonic plague were confirmed in Mongolia -- brothers who had both eaten marmot meat, according to China's state-run news agency Xinhua. In May 2019, another couple in Mongolia died from the plague after eating the raw kidney of a marmot, thought to be a folk remedy for good health.

Marmots a type of large ground squirrel that is eaten in some parts of China and the neighboring country Mongolia, and which have historically caused plague outbreaks in the region.
The marmot is believed to have caused the 1911 pneumonic plague epidemic, which killed about 63,000 people in northeast China. It was hunted for its fur, which soared in popularity among international traders. The diseased fur products were traded and transported around the country -- infecting thousands along the way.
