It still occurs in particular wildlife and flea cycles, however, and a plausible exposure followed by compatible symptoms needs urgent medical attention. Plague is caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis; people usually get it from infected flea bites or contact with infected animals.
Am I at risk of plague?
Risk depends largely on where you are and what you have been exposed to—not on a general threat of a new Black Death. In the United States, plague occurs naturally in parts of the West, where local risk can vary with disease activity among animals and fleas. CDC also identifies certain regions of Africa and Asia where plague occurs. That does not mean every resident or traveler in those broad areas faces the same risk. CDC’s overview of plague describes its geographic range.

Globally, cases are concentrated rather than evenly distributed. The World Health Organization reports that most cases reported during 2019–2025 occurred in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Madagascar; this is a period-specific summary, not an annual count or a claim that risk is uniform across either country. See the WHO plague fact sheet.

The usual route is a bite from a flea carrying Y. pestis. Handling an infected animal can also expose someone to the bacteria, including through contact with infected tissue. Plague persists in cycles involving animals and fleas, so exposure is most relevant where those cycles occur. CDC’s explanation of how plague spreads covers these routes.

Plague has several clinical forms, and they should not be confused with one another:
- Bubonic plague is associated with swollen, painful lymph nodes and is commonly acquired through an infected flea bite.
- Septicemic plague involves infection in the bloodstream. It can occur after a flea bite or animal contact, and may also develop as a complication of another form.
- Pneumonic plague affects the lungs and is the form that can spread between people through infectious respiratory droplets.
Can plague spread between people?
It can, but the important exception is pneumonic plague: an infected person’s respiratory droplets can transmit the bacteria to someone nearby. This is not a reason to treat plague as something that spreads readily through ordinary casual contact. CDC says person-to-person spread has not been documented in the United States since 1924; that historical statement does not mean transmission is biologically impossible, and rare pneumonic cases have also been associated with sick cats. CDC’s transmission guidance describes the routes and U.S. context.

What should I do after a possible exposure?
If you develop an illness that could be plague after a relevant flea bite, animal contact, or travel exposure, seek urgent medical assessment. Tell the clinician what happened and where and when it happened. Do not try to treat yourself or wait for symptoms to pass: plague can become severe, and CDC advises starting treatment when it is suspected rather than waiting for confirmatory test results. The appropriate treatment and route depend on clinical factors and are for medical professionals to determine. See CDC’s clinical care guidance.
WHO describes plague as potentially very severe, especially in septicemic and pneumonic forms. It reports a 30%–60% case-fatality ratio for untreated bubonic plague and says untreated septicemic or pneumonic plague can be fatal. Those figures refer to untreated disease and should not be applied to treated cases. Prompt medical assessment matters because antibiotics can treat plague.

How can I reduce the risk in areas where plague occurs?
- Reduce rodent habitat around your home and recreation areas.
- Wear gloves when handling or skinning animals that could be infected. Ask local health officials how to handle or dispose of a dead animal.
- Use insect repellent when an activity could expose you to fleas. CDC identifies DEET products for skin and clothing and permethrin products for clothing; follow each product’s label.
- Keep pets on veterinary flea-control products. Pets that roam freely may encounter infected animals or fleas.
CDC says a plague vaccine is no longer available in the United States. Its prevention guidance gives further detail on reducing exposure.
