You didn't link to any of my posts, genius.

If you are referring to me pointing you towards the latest research indicating that the black death was, in fact, a viral hemorrhagic fever, that research does not somehow imply getting the new untreatable bubonic plague is no big deal. You have some serious rational handicaps. Bubonic plague is pretty easy to treat (usually). What we see now is something new. That could be pretty bad.

You are just a fucking tard so I don't expect you to grasp distinctions that are self-evident to most.
Never mind. That was Smitty. My bad.

This strain of y. pestus seems to be antibiotic resistant.

Because this disease is extremely rare, it doesn’t get exposed to antibiotics that often,” he said.

“That means it’s more resistant to antibiotics and the risk of death is higher.”

However, he said if antibiotics are handed out quickly then the disease “can still be treated”.


Guessing the below statement (which is also in the same article) is due to a robo-journalists or just a plain ignorant journalist:
Speaking exclusively to Daily Star Online, Dr Avison said because the disease is “extremely rare” it has been “resilient” to antibiotics.
Less exposure = higher resistance?

Yeah, that doesn't make any sense. But this one really does seem resistant, regardless of the explanation given by that retarded journalist.

I would question the assertion that y pestus rarely gets exposed to antibiotics first and foremost. It's actually not rare at all.
