Pets, particularly cats and dogs, can also carry plague-infected fleas into the home.<\/p>\n<h2>Plague symptoms<\/h2>\n<p>Symptoms of plague generally appear within two weeks of exposure and may include fever, nausea, weakness, and swollen lymph nodes. If detected early, the illness is treatable with antibiotics.<\/p>\n<p>Although human cases of plague are extremely rare, they can be serious. El Dorado County said this is its first reported human case since 2020. Prior to that, the last confirmed cases in California were in 2015, involving two people exposed in Yosemite National Park. All previous patients recovered after receiving treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Surveillance conducted by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and local health agencies between 2021 and 2024 identified 41 rodents in El Dorado County that had been exposed to plague. In 2025, four additional rodents have tested positive\u2014each found in the Tahoe Basin.<\/p>\n<p>El Dorado County Public Health shared the following tips to prevent exposure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Avoid contact with squirrels, chipmunks, or other rodents.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Do not allow pets to interact with sick or dead rodents.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Use flea control products on pets and keep them leashed when outdoors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Wear long pants and use insect repellent containing DEET when hiking or camping.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Be aware of all posted warning signs.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Seek medical attention if you experience symptoms after visiting an area known for plague activity.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/richard-ramos\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Richard  Ramos<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Richard Ramos is a web producer for CBS Sacramento who was born and raised in Sacramento.
