Which of the following is NOT true about human
plague (Yersinia pestis infection)?
Yersinia pestis infection of lymph nodes can

secondary pneumonic plague
Usually acquired in the US from bites of
fleas that have fed on infected urban rats

"buboes"
Infected fleas' gastrointestinal tract is
blocked by Y. pestis growth, causing them to
regurgitate and infect a new host when they
bite
None of the other four answers (All are true
about human plague)
