In Madagascar, a devastating plague is infecting thousands of people. This plague is a form of the bubonic plague. It has developed to spread easier, but the current science does have a cure. It occurs commonly in Madagascar, but started earlier and heavier than usual. This brings up much concern. People are getting help and being treated as best as they can be.
Meera Senthilingam wrote this compelling and horrific article, showing the state Madagascar is in. People tend to forget plagues, like the bubonic, are not extinct for everyone if they are where you live. Our developed technology helps us handle these things better, but these articles are used to raise awareness and worry for the still struggling communities.
