I believe that it is tularemia which is being discussed.  Tularemia is a
disease caused by a bacteria (Francisella tularensis)  which infects rodents
and is transmittable to humans by ingestion or blood-to-blood contact.  It
is an American disease and is named for Tulare County, California where it
was first isolated.
