How One Gene Helped Plague Persistently Cause Pandemics
Bubonic plague has caused the deadliest pandemic in history. The bacterium that causes bubonic plague, known as Yersinia pestis can cause severe illness and death. Now reporting in Science, researchers have shown how one gene in the Yersinia pestis genome has enabled its survival over hundreds of years, with tweaks to virulence and deadliness.
"Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday dismissed an expert panel of vaccine advisers ... saying the group is “plagued with conflicts of interest.” "
Well now I'm properly confused. Is RFK in favour of plague or against it?

The plague bacterium contains high probability mutations that affect how long the host stays infectious for. This allows it to switch from rapid transmission in cities to slower, more sustained spread, where people interact less often. Clever bug.

Today in Labor History May 30, 1381: Tax collector John Bampton sparked the Peasants’ Revolt in Brentwood, Essex. The mass uprising, also known as Wat Tyler’s Rebellion, or the Great Rising, began because of attempts to collect a poll tax. However, tensions were already high because of the economic misery and hunger caused by the Black Death pandemic of the 1340s, and the Hundred Years’ War. During the uprising, rebels burned public records and freed prisoners. King Richard II, 14 years old, hid in the Tower of London. Rebels entered the Tower and killed the Lord Chancellor and the Lord High Treasurer, but not the king. It took nearly six months for the authorities to suppress the Peasants’ Revolt. They slaughtered over 1,400 rebels. Roughly 600 years later, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher tried again to impose a poll tax on Britain’s working class. It also sparked a revolt which brought an end both to the tax and Thatcher’s regime. Billy Bragg references Thatcher’s poll tax in his song, All You Fascists.

“_Remarkably, it also uncovered the first direct evidence of the plague in medieval Flanders, at a time when no written sources from the town make mention of the disease._”

"A malaria-like disease spread by ticks is moving into Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia
The tick that causes Lyme can also spread babesiosis — and researchers fear doctors in the mid-Atlantic don't know about it."
Again, I finished some models for the Plague. 😁

The US government really doesn't like science, does it? If Trump really wants to get rid of his wife, he can just send her to El Salvador. He doesn't have to send the whole country back to the Tudor era.

I’m sure this is fine.
Plague is like a cold, right? /s!!
From the link:
“Plague symptoms in cats and dogs are fever, lethargy and loss of appetite. There may be swelling in the lymph node under the jaw.
Symptoms of plague in humans include sudden onset of fever, chills, headache, and weakness. In most cases, there is a swollen, painful lymph node in the groin, armpit or neck area.”
