Health » Illness rarely seen in U.S. kills N.J. man
Sep 03, 2004

CNN

The man died of Lassa fever, a virus spread through rat droppings or urine that can be passed to other people through bodily fluids but not through causal contact, officials said. The 38-year-old man from the Trenton area was not identified by authorities.
It is unlikely that other passengers on the man's flight back from Africa or those who treated him were exposed, according to Dr. Clifton Lacy, state health commissioner.
