Mechanism study on a plague outbreak driven by the construction of a large reservoir in southwest china (surveillance from 2000-2015). [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
BACKGROUND:Plague, a Yersinia pestis infection, is a fatal disease with tremendous transmission capacity. However, the mechanism of how the pathogen stays in a reservoir, circulates and then re-emerges is an enigma.
