How is bubonic plague treated?It is very important to start treatment of this disease as soon as the symptoms are diagnosed and disease is confirmed.Once diagnosed for bubonic plague, doctor may chose treatment based upon the patient's medical history and severity of the disease. In ancient times when use of antibiotics was not known, the plague was cured by burning the buboes with blood-hot iron rod, which was a barbaric method but did save many lives.In modern times, use of antibiotics has taken place of burning the buboes. Antibiotics are used to fight bacteria and rest of the treatment is carried out based on the symptoms.Vaccines are also available and should be taken at least a weak in advance in case of sudden outbreak of plague or if the person is supposed to travel to the plague affected area.
The most devastating natural disaster in Europe during the late 1300s was the Black Death, a bubonic plague pandemic that swept through the continent between 1347 and 1351. The disease is estimated to have killed between 75-200 million people in Europe, causing widespread social and economic disruption.
