It can also refer to one specific disease, Yersinia pestis.  On top of that, a plague can refer to a large number of insects or animals in one place that are causing a lot of damage, like the locusts currently swarming in east Africa.  In this article, we'll talk about the plagues, or pandemics, that humans have battled with throughout history.  7 films about epidemics and viral outbreaks Black Death The worst plague in history was the Black Death, which may have killed up to 200 million people.

epidemic jaundice :: Article Creator Hepatitis E Vaccination Is Effective In An Epidemic Hepatitis E, a potentially serious viral liver disease, is transmitted through contaminated water. The risk is particularly high in populations with limited access to safe water and sanitation. In South Sudan, outbreaks have regularly ravaged camps for internally displaced persons and their host populations. Although a vaccine has been available since 2011, its 3-dose regimen makes it difficult to administer in such a context.

sputnik v vaccine :: Article Creator Coronavirus: Sputnik V Vaccine Rushed Out To Wary Russians Sarah Rainsford BBC News, Moscow Sputnik V is the country's leading vaccine against Covid-19 Its name alone speaks of Russia's ambition: Sputnik V, the country's leading vaccine against Covid-19, is meant to be a world-beater just like its cosmic namesake. Back in August, it was the first to be registered for emergency use although it had only been tested on a few dozen people. Now doctors, teachers and social workers are being offered Sputnik V in a mass inoculation campaign ordered by President Vladimir Putin. Its timing, just ahead of a similar launch in the UK, is unlikely to be a coincidence.
