    Facts about pneumonic plague [Spanish]

    Esta peste es una enfermedad infecciosa que afecta tanto a animales como a seres humanos. Es causada por la bacteria Yersinia pestis, que se encuentra en los roedores y sus pulgas, en muchas partes del mundo, incluso en los Estados Unidos.

    La Y. pestis se destruye y seca fácilmente si está expuesta a la luz solar. No obstante, sobrevive hasta una hora en el aire, aun cuando esto puede variar según las condiciones.
