Plague risk in the western United States over seven decades of environmental change

2021-02-27

Abstract excerpt

After several pandemics over the last two millennia, the wildlife reservoirs of plague ( Yersinia pestis ) now persist around the world, including in the western United States. Routine surveillance in this region has generated comprehensive records of human cases and animal seroprevalence, creating a unique opportunity to test how plague reservoirs are responding to environmental change. Here, we develop a new me...
