Today it would be treated with antibiotics and eradicticated without a problem, however in the past they didn't know about germs and antibiotics so they couldn't find a cure for it, which is why it killed so many people.

How did people treat you if you had black plague?

It depended on when you contracted the disease, generally. If it was towards the beginning of the epidemic, then they might have hope, and try to treat it as they would any illness: your family would care for you. However, if you caught the plague after the epidemic had swelled to a pandemic, and people were feeling hopeless, then often healthy citizens would board up the houses of the ill, and confine them therein. You and your family would die of lack of water, starvation, or the disease itself.
