Bubonic tularemia

Tularemia (Tularaemia) is a zoonotic, in some cases a natural focal bacterial infection from the group of zoonoses, transmitted to humans most often through contact, less often through nutrition. Susceptibility to tularemia is low; possible immune carriage. Despite the fact that the pathogen can live in the human body, the disease develops only when infected. Tularemia caused by Y. pestis is characterized by high mortality among susceptible populations and the possibility of epidemics in natural foci. Cases of human illness have been recorded through contact with the corpses of rodents from which the pathogen culture was isolated. Less commonly, tularemia infection occurs when eating thermally unprocessed foods infected with the pathogen, as well as in pigs that eat dead rodents or vaccinated rodents. In regions with a temperate climate, human infection with the tularemida pathogen is possible in places where wild animals, agricultural raw materials and food products are collected and shot. The infection poses a particular danger to people involved in the trade or hunting of wild animals (hunting). Factors contributing to the spread
