3 Additional Cases of Plague Reported by CDPHE

News Link
All cases are believed linked to the dog owned by the first person to contract pneumonic plague. The dog is believed to have been bitten by fleas that obtained the plague from prairie dogs or rabbits. The dog spread it to the people via inhalation. The health department's privacy policy doesn't allow identification of who was affected.
