Transmission of Antimicrobial Resistant Yersinia pestis During a Pneumonic Plague Outbreak

8 Jul 2021

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pneumonic plague (PP), caused by Yersinia pestis, is the most feared clinical form of plague due to its rapid lethality and potential to cause outbreaks. PP outbreaks are now rare due to antimicrobial therapy. METHODS: A PP outbreak in Madagascar involving transmission of a Y. pestis strain resistant to streptomycin, the current recommended first-line treatment in Madagascar, was retrospectively...
