Cockroach CJJ in response to the pin Pin: last year in Inner Mongolia has already been registered two cases of bubonic plague ranchers who ate anything and everything. They were sent for treatment in Beijing. Inner Mongolia is a plateau? If you had contact with the ill, then immediately infect. Plague is not a disease that you can catch only if you have something to eat.

My journey is the ocean of stars: Listen to me, I live in Bayan Nur in Inner Mongolia. I have something to say: plague is an infectious disease And this is true, and the fact that it’s really scary, that too. But Inner Mongolia is a natural source of infection, we had nothing to do with it, rats very much and it’s impossible to catch everyone and to check the plague or not. Local authorities have countermeasures on this account, they know what to do with them, because they have a rich experience of struggle against this infection. Everyone, please calm down.
White sauce Juju: the Goal this year is to stay alive.
Weightelyy big purple demon Dada: From Mongolia the plague has spread in Inner Mongolia? Remember about the two infections in the past year.

Will not a small pig: And the plague has dared to declare in my Inner Mongolia?? You’re done.
And what about the yellow gem?: My Inner Mongolia will try for the sake of the whole country!
Lilila: popular science sources state that the plague is an infectious disease of class A, commonly known as the Black death. In Inner Mongolia have already been cases of infection around November of last year, but the measures for prevention and control was very good (well for my big Inner Mongolia). Plague is spread by the bites of fleas, rats, respiratory infections and through the skin. The development of the disease is very rapid and the mortality rate is extremely high. Therefore, everyone should observe safety precautions: do not to contact with rodents during the events in the suburbs to avoid contact with patients, promptly report the suspicion of the plague, if you want to use anti flea bites.
Calm mYau meow fishand ancestor _cri: Trust the government to control epidemic! No need to panic! The first thing to pay attention to your own health! Inner Mongolia, fight!
