A person died from the plague in Arizona, and this is scary. Officials say it’s rare, but we should pay attention. This shows our leaders might not be protecting us enough.
The victim died the same day they went to the hospital. This happened near Flagstaff. Health workers say the risk to others is low, but why did this happen at all? We know the plague killed many people long ago.
This death is the first from plague in that area since 2007. It came from bacteria in fleas on rodents. Officials aren’t telling us much about the person who died. They say not to worry, but we have a right to know what’s going on.
Prairie dogs in the area have been dying too. This often signals plague is spreading. Fleas from these rodents can jump to pets and people. Our borders are open, and diseases can enter easily. Why isn’t the government checking people coming into our country?
Government health groups say plague is rare with only seven U.S. cases a year. But one death is too many. They tell us not to panic, but they didn’t stop this from happening. Our leaders should focus on real threats instead of pushing fear about other things.
The plague vaccine isn’t available here. Officials say they’re working on it, but we need protection now. Citizens deserve to feel safe. Instead, we get excuses and empty promises from those in charge.
This tragedy proves we must be ready to protect ourselves. Don’t wait for the government to save you. Trust your instincts and look out for your family first. Stay alert and question what officials tell you.
Freedom means taking responsibility for our own safety. This plague death is a warning we can’t ignore. Stand strong, stay informed, and demand better from those who are supposed to serve us.
