Currently, there have been laboratory confirmed reports of plague in animals and fleas from six counties. This includes LaPlata County, where the 10-year-old girl died “from causes associated with plague,” health officials said. The girl’s identity was not revealed.
Laboratory testing has since confirmed the presence of plague in a sample of fleas collected in the county. CDPHE wants people to learn about plague and take precautions.
