Weld County health officials are urging vigilance after  five men have been sickened by tularemia, also known as rabbit fever, in the past five weeks.

"This is unusual," Eric Aakko, spokesman for the county's Department of Public Health and Environment, said. "Usually we don't have any cases in a given year."

The health department says the men sickened are between 56- and 80-years-old and are from Greeley, Erie, LaSalle, Milliken and Longmont.

Tularemia is a bioweapon by rabbits to kill humans. Louping virus is deadly for ptarmigans and it can infect humans.
