Question

multiple - choice question
are strands of the plague still present today?
yes
no

Explanation:

The plague, caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, still exists today. There are sporadic cases in certain regions, often in areas with suitable rodent populations (which are the natural reservoirs) and fleas (the vectors). While modern medical treatments (like antibiotics) can effectively treat most cases and public health measures can prevent large - scale outbreaks similar to historical pandemics (such as the Black Death), the pathogen itself has not been eradicated.

Answer:

Yes
