==Overview==
Since 2002, the [[World Health Organization]] (WHO) has reported seven plague outbreaks, though some may go unreported because they often happen in remote areas. Between 1998 and 2009, nearly 24,000 cases have been reported, including about 2,000 deaths, in [[Africa]], [[Asia]], the Americas and Eastern [[Europe]]. 98 percent of the world's cases occur in Africa.
