· Victims were bled and given laxatives to remove blood or bad humors from the body.
· Dried toads were placed on the buboes to draw out poison.
· Butchery regulations were set up to keep streets clean from blood and animal intestines, and other thing animals and insects get attracted to.
· The clothes of victims were burnt. This was a dangerous task as the disease could be spread by contact with victims clothes.
· Towns were closed to people leaving or visiting. Quarantine restrictions badly affected trade.
· Streets were cleaned of muck and rotting waste of every kind.
· The number of mourners were allowed at funerals were limited. Times for funeral were set for mid-day so relatives of the victim who may have been infected were kept off the streets.
· Some towns blamed Jews for the plague: for poisoning their wells and deliberately infecting people with The Black Death. May were killed as a result.
· Lighting aromatic fires to tackle the miasma (bad air).
· Flagellation and religious procession to please god.
In one notable example, the English village of Eyam chose to quarantine itself in an effort to stem to the spread of the Bubonic Plague when it arrived in the village in August, 1665.
At first, the europeans knew nothing about the black death. They believed it was coming from the cats, and killed all the cats they could have found. This was wrong, because the plauge was spreading through the rats, and the cats had been eating the rats, thus creating a larger problem for the europeans. At the time, many lived in poverty, throwing waste out onto the streets, only creating a much larger problem.
Baby jebus told them to stop it or else they would get stabbed with a pony
Some of them, such as the inhabitants of Eyam, isolated and quarantined themselves to help stop the spread of Plague.

Europe could not deal with the black death because they didn't know what caused It.
The Bubonic Plague. However, this wasn't the most devastating to Europeans in the 14th century. The Bubonic Plague spawned a new disease, the Black Death, which was the true killer.

The Black Death is the name given to a severe outbreak of bubonic plague in the 1300s in Europe. The bubonic plague is caused by the bacteria Yersinia pestis and is still with us today.In the 1300s, infection with bubonic plague was more or less fatal. Today, however, we have a better understanding of the disease and its progression. With timely antibiotics and supportive therapy, you have a moderate chance to survive The Black Death today.
Another name for the plague is the black death
Yes, the mortality rate of plague is not constant depending on what strain and type it is. It can be as high as 90%, so 10% of people who catch it will survive. whatever the disease (like plague), there will normally be some people who are either immune to it and will not get sick or people that get sick but recover from it.
