Corrected plagiarism in the article by citing the source.

"A severe threat with the potential to facilitate the rapid spread of plague in Madagascar is the large numbers of rats in the country's prisons. If plague-carrying fleas were to infest these rats, they would inevitably infect prisoners, prison guards and visitors, which in turn would threaten the health of the general population." ^[1]

Added two new sentences from the source ^[2]

See content added below:

"While plague is not very common in many parts of the world, Madagascar reports anywhere from 300 to 600 reported cases per year (80% of the world’s bubonic plague cases). Typically these cases appear sometime between October and March."

Linked word "NGOs" to Wikipedia page on Non-governmental organization for clarification on what the acronym stands for.

with the 2017 Madagascar plague article as I am also adding new material to the background of that article. Combining all of these seems like a logical idea. Thoughts? Lisaromanopalacios ( talk) 00:50, 25 July 2018 (UTC) reply

Have taken the background from this page, minus the defining information about plague itself as it is covered in the new article, and added it to /info/en/?search=2017_Madagascar_plague_outbreak Lisaromanopalacios ( talk) 00:56, 30 July 2018 (UTC) reply
