plague
Plague is a highly contagious disease mainly spread by Yersinia pestis through rat fleas. It is a natural epidemic disease widely prevalent among wild rodents. Clinically, it manifests as fever, severe toxemia, lymphadenopathy, pneumonia, bleeding tendency, etc. Plague has had many major outbreaks in world history, with tens of millions of deaths and a very high mortality rate. In 1992, 9 countries including Brazil, China, Madagascar, Mongolia, Myanmar, Peru, the United States, Vietnam and Zaire reported human plague worldwide, with a total of 1,582 cases. Most of the patients were concentrated in Africa, with a mortality rate of 8.7%. There were 29 cases in my country, concentrated in Xishuangbanna. my country also had many outbreaks before liberation. The confirmed plague foci in China are distributed in 17 provinces (autonomous regions) and 216 counties, and animal plague continues. Human plague has expanded from two provinces (Qinghai and Tibet) in 1985 to six provinces including Yunnan, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang and Gansu. The work of preventing and controlling plague in my country is still very important.

In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. If anaerobic organisms are suspected of contributing to the infection, appropriate therapy should be administered. Appropriate culture and susceptibility tests should be performed before treatment in order to isolate and identify organisms causing infection and to determine their susceptibility to ciprofloxacin. Therapy with ciprofloxacin tablets may be initiated before results of these tests are known; once results become available appropriate therapy should be continued.
