Abstract: An investigation was conducted historical type registration files of the city of Trujillo, to evaluate and\ndetermine as was the appearance of plague in the region, particularly freedom in the city of Trujillo, Peru in\nthe early twentieth century, for that reason it was determined that there were cases of plague in Trujillo and\nin the Chicama valley area especially large hacienda House Chicama city. We conclude that it is possible\nthat carriers of the disease were merchants who traveled from the affected regions using the usual routes\nto market from the Middle East and the Mediterranean. Reached Constantinople in 1347, and Paris and the\nsouth coast of England in the summer of 1348, and why not say the city of Trujillo, Peru. The main measures\nused to control the risk of epidemics are controlling rats and monitoring of disease in wild rodent\npopulations aimed at informing people of the areas where zoonotic plague is active and to take precautions\nagainst mosquito bites flea and handling of dead animals while they are in plague-endemic areas. Avoid\ndirect contact with infective tissues exposed to patients with pneumonic plague.
