Which is worse the plague or bubonic plague?
Today, when people say the plague as in a disease, they generally mean the bubonic plague. However, there are three types of plague: - bubonic - the kind with the swollen lymph nodes called buboes, that's where the name comes from - pneumonic - this is transmitted by coughing and people usually die within 2 days of showing symptoms - septicemic, which is in your blood and causes tissue to die. Pneumonic is far more contageous and kills quicker than the other two, so that's arguably the worst.

What are two types of plague?
One type is from a bite of a flea that carries the disease. The spot where the person is bitten turns black and forms a pustule. The other type was carried by the air and came from a cough of an infected person ( like the flu). The people who got the plague this way died faster than the people with the bite.
