The surveillance of territories surrounding the plague focus of Kurdistan province in Iran, by inspection of wild rodent burrows, permit to reveal the existence of an epizootic in a new focus located in the Eastern Azarbaidjan province, where plague was never reported. 14 strains of Y. pestis were isolated from Meriones vinogradovi, M. persicus Mesocricetus brandti and from the fleas: Xenopsylla conformis and Nosopsylla iranus iranus. The eventual relationship between these two areas separated by about 200 km was investigated: neither attempts to isolate Y. pestis nor serological surveys permit to reveal any sign of plague enzootic in the zone between the Kurdistan focus and the new described focus of the Eastern Azarbaidjan.
通过检查野生啮齿动物洞穴，对伊朗库尔德斯坦省鼠疫疫源地周边地区进行监测，从而发现了位于东阿塞拜疆省一个新疫源地的动物流行病，此前该地区从未报告过鼠疫。从长爪沙鼠、波斯沙鼠、布氏中仓鼠以及跳蚤（即同型客蚤和伊朗额蚤伊朗亚种）中分离出了14株鼠疫耶尔森菌。对这两个相距约200公里的地区之间可能存在的关系进行了调查：无论是分离鼠疫耶尔森菌的尝试还是血清学调查，均未发现库尔德斯坦疫源地与新描述的东阿塞拜疆疫源地之间的区域存在鼠疫地方流行的迹象。
