*** Bubonic plague confirmed in Namibia WINDHOEK, Namibia (AP) - Local medical authorities confirmed Monday an outbreak of the bubonic plague in Namibia's populous north-central region that has killed three of the 73 people with the disease. Dr. Naftali Hamata of the Namibian health ministry said tests done at the South African Institute for Medical Research last week showed that six of 11 samples sent for analysis proved positive for bubonic plague. He said the other five cases may also still prove positive, but more testing must be done. Bubonic plague, also known as the Black Death, killed an estimated 25 million people in Europe between 1346 and 1351, wiping out nearly one-third of the population. See infobeat.com
