  Bad news: the plague was never fully eradicated and there are still like a thousand reported cases every year (mostly in Madagascar I think).

    My mom had it for years before they finally figured out what it was. It didn’t present with the bubos and they were just mystified.

    Great news: you can survive for years with it on other meds and just being clean. It’s no fun but you don’t die.
