Yes, if you live in rural areas where there are carriers, such as field mice and prarie dogs. However, it is easily cured with antibiotics.
This is not true. While mice DID have to do with the cause. Flea is actually where it originated. Fleas bit the mice and rats then it spread to humans. I'm in history class right now and I just read in the book that to this day there is still no cure for bubonic plague.
the first answer is the most correct, there is a cure ( antibotics ) the second part is right the flea is where it originated :D
I've researched plenty of websites (university websites and government websites and some organization websites) about the black death and yes, you can get it today since the World Health Organization receives at least 1,000 cases each year, globally. Also, there is NO CURE for the black death and its three forms. There are treatments for it but again there is NO CURE for it. Also, the second person (the person who said they were in history class) is also right about the Black Plague/Death being carried by fleas.

∙ 12y agoThere were different forms of the Black Death, and they were spread in different ways, though they were caused by the same organism.
The Bubonic Plague was a form carried by such animals as rats and the fleas that lived on them, both of which exhibited symptoms of the disease. When a flea bit an infected rat, it would get sick; subsequently, if it bit another rat or a human being, it would vomit as it bit, infecting that animal or person.
The Pneumonic Plague was spread directly from one person to another. Some people infected with the Bubonic Plague developed very bad coughing, and the plague was carried by droplets in the air into the lungs of another person, who would develop the same cough. This form was especially deadly, but it was less common than the Bubonic form.
The spread of these plagues is rather easily controlled with modern medicine.
There is a link below.

∙ 15y agoYou can catch black death nowadays, but it's highly unlikey. It is in more third world like countries and is thought to be carried my rats. it could happen again, but sionce we're a more technological soceity, we'd be able to stop the growing of it and it wouldn't reach epidemic proportions like in the Middle Ages.

∙ 16y agoThe Black Death can be spread just as it did in the 15th Century, through rats and fleas. Now, it is treatable with antibiotics and rest.
