RiskMap<p>⚡️ Mongolia is experiencing a public health crisis with the outbreak of Bubonic Plague, linked to the consumption of marmots. The National Center for Animal Diseases confirmed a case last week, caused by the bacterium Yersinia Pestis. Symptoms appear within 2-6 days and transmission occurs through flea bites, contact with infected animals, respiratory droplets, and close contact with deceased victims.
