The San Francisco plague of 1900–1904 was an epidemic of bubonic plague centered on San Francisco's Chinatown. It was the first plague epidemic in the continental United States. The epidemic was recognized by medical authorities in March 1900, but its existence was denied for more than two years by California's Governor Henry Gage. His denial was based on business reasons, to protect the reputations of San Francisco and California and to prevent the loss of revenue due to quarantine. The failure to act quickly may have allowed the disease to establish itself among local animal populations. Federal authorities worked to prove that there was a major health problem, and they isolated the affected area; this undermined Gage's credibility, and he lost the governorship in the 1902 elections.

  • L'épidémie de peste de San Francisco a eu lieu entre 1900 et 1904. Elle a été déclenchée dans le quartier de Chinatown probablement par l'arrivée du navire Australia qui accosta dans le port de San Francisco en 1900 en amenant avec lui des rats infestés par la peste de Chine. C'est la première épidémie de peste à frapper le continent nord-américain. (fr)
  • La peste de San Francisco de 1900-1904 fue una epidemia de peste bubónica centrada en el barrio chino de San Francisco. Fue la primera epidemia de peste en los Estados Unidos continentales.​ La epidemia fue reconocida por las autoridades médicas en marzo de 1900, pero su existencia fue negada durante más de dos años por el gobernador de California, . Su negación se basó en razones comerciales, para proteger la reputación de San Francisco y California y para evitar la pérdida de ingresos debido a la cuarentena. La falta de acción rápida puede haber permitido que la enfermedad se estableciera entre las poblaciones animales locales.​ Las autoridades federales trabajaron para demostrar que había un problema de salud importante, y aislaron la zona afectada; esto socavó la credibilidad de Gage, (es)
