I am at more risk of getting Ebola than probably anybody on this forum. Dealing with blood born pathogens is what I do.. The company I work for is close to developing a vaccine for it but i just dread all of the extensive mandatory Ebola training that all employes will have to go through.
Bubonic plague was used in early war fare and it was very simple and effective. This is the scope of ISIS technology. Just FYI - the bubonic plague "black death" is caused by an organism called Yersinia Pestis which lives in a flea that is carried by rats. Funny thing anout fleas is when they bite you to take a blood meal, they will deficate at the same time. Yersinis is in their poop and you scratch it in your skin. The scary thing is that it has never been eradicated and is still out there too just waiting to surface again. For Ebola it's bats and bat poop that serve as the vector- you don't hear the scientific community telling the media to much about that- would cause too much un necessary hysteria and panic everytime some one seen a bat... My guess
The next time you notice, the rat on the front of my rzr is to always remind me of that the plague is still out there. I named the rat Yersinia. Lol
