Wow. She takes her episodes of House way too seriously.

I just love that these days the BLACK DEATH is easily treatable.

I'm soooo glad I live now and not then.

An estimated 10 to 20 Americans contract plague each year, mostly in rural communities.
So, when I joke that "I Have PLAGUE" I may be correct?

People are usually surprised to learn that plague and anthrax still occur rarely in the United States.

But how would you like to be the lady's neighbors being told "oh, nothing to worry about. It isn't contagious."

I love the end of this article:

Health officials said they suspect the woman was exposed by fleas in her home and that there was no cause for alarm. [snip]

Bubonic plague is believed to have been the "Black Death" that killed 25 million people in Europe between 1346 and 1351.
Don't worry--it only killed 25 million people in a 5-year period.
