Yep. There are still a few outbreaks every year, but fortunately, it can be treated if you catch it fast enough, and contained. There was an outbreak in California in the 90's, I believe. Not many people died though - they caught it fast.

Yes, it still exists. Check out the CDC's website for info on recent outbreaks.
