Bubonic Plague

If you haven’t heard, the Bubonic plague has been contracted by a few campers in Yosemite National Park. I find it incredible, however, that a disease that killed such a vast number of people during its massive strike hundreds of years ago is now so curable with treatment. It is a testament to the advancements in the medical field and very lucky for the people contracting it in current times.
