A man in Berkeley, California, died from leptospirosis contracted in an RV where he and his partner were breeding wild rats. The couple, both in their 70s, had at least 100 rats and did not seek medical care for months. The woman also contracted the disease and was hospitalized. Nearly 200 rats were removed before the RV was towed and destroyed; cleanup is expected to take at least 30 days due to the bacteria's survival in soil.
