How did people attempt to stop them from catching the black death?
There was little scientific or medical knowledge in the Middle Ages, so most of what they did to try to stop the plague did not have any effect on it. Some things they did were: applied poultices of various foods and substances to the buboes (the swellings caused by the plague); opened the buboes with knives, which actually would make the plague spread faster; various folk medicine or witchcraft remedies such as using a frog applied to the buboes, to try to remove the plague; prayer and blessing by priests, which often resulted in the death of the priest from the plague; blaming minorities and trying to stop the plague by removing the minorities (such as Jews) from their midst; herbal and dietary remedies; flagellation (whipping themselves) was practiced by some in an effort to get God's forgiveness, because they believed the plague was the result of sin. Unfortunately, the flagellation opened wounds on the bodies of such people, giving an easy route for the disease to spread. These people, known as "flagellants," also travelled from town to town to spread their belief that the plague could be stopped in this way, and the fact that they travelled also increased the plague, because they were carrying it with them in their bodies from town to town.
How did people attempt the plague from spreading?
Since it was not commonly known that bubonic plague was carried by the rat flea, it was generally assumed to be a supernatural affliction. Healers tried to ward off the plague by wearing masks and reciting incantations. The effectiveness of these methods in unknown but severely doubted. People killed all the rats and pets. They buried dead bodies deep and burnt everything.
