Precautionary Techniques

All of the diseases caused by the yersinia-pestis bacterium are extremely deadly and contagious, but unfortunately there really is not much you can do to protect yourself other than making sure that your house is not infested with rats. Others precautions include getting your pets flea collars and do not let people cough or sneeze on you. Do not visit people who have the disease. This really is all common sense so try to keep yourself clean.
