No 2020, just no.

A California resident has tested positive for plague, marking the state’s first human case of the disease in five years, according to health officials.

The case was confirmed on Monday (Aug. 17) in a resident of South Lake Tahoe, according to a statement from the El Dorado County Department of Health and Human Services.

The individual is described as an “avid walker” who may have been bitten by an infected flea while walking their dog in the Tahoe Keys area or along the “Truckee River Corridor” north of Highway 50, the statement said. Source: LiveScience
