Usaully,the person will died within five days.
Bubonic plague is usually transmitted by infected fleas. These fleas typically live on rodents, in particular rats.
Don't live in 14th century Europe.
Your screwed and you have about 4 days to live
The bubonic plague
They didn't have one. They'd be dead. Unless, of course, you mean in modern days. Then, you'd most likely be treated with antibiotics and you'd live your life how you wished.
Take some antibiotics unless you want to die. Then, live life to the fullest. =)
The Black Death was a specific outbreak of bubonic plague that ravaged Europe in 1347 to 1352. The bubonic plague depends on its disease carriers, fleas and the rats they live on. The possibility of plague is reduced by keeping the numbers of these carriers low. Bubonic plague is also fairly easily treated by any of a number of modern antibiotics. Though the disease shows up every so often, perhaps every year, somewhere on the planet, it never has the ability to spread much, because it is too well understood and corrective measures are rather simple.
There are three kinds of plague. The most commonly known is the bubonic plague, it's from the fleas that live on rats. People only really get it if they share an environment with rats. Septicemic plague, which is in the blood, also comes from those fleas. Pneumonic plague is spread in the cough droplets of people who have it--people who get this kind of plague usually die within 2 days of contracting it.
Only in unsanitory conditions like third-world countries so if you live in the us or Canada you are safe ANSWER Actually, Bubonic Plague still occurs (although rarely) in many rural areas of the American Southwest, where it is carried by fleas on packrats, field mice, and prairie dogs. It is completely curable if treated early by antibiotics.
The black death, other wise known as the Bubonic Plague occurred in Europes middle ages. It was caused by a disease that rats and fleas carried and as shown, was deadly, for there was no cure for it then
Unless you live in somewhere highly populated by BLACK rats (not brown rats) you don't have much chance of getting it, as they are the ones the fleas lived on. The black plague nowadays is also cured by antibiotics.
Neither medicine nor hygiene were adequate to stop the disease, so it had to burn itself out. Pretty much everyone who didn't have natural immunity to the plague died, leaving mostly those who were immune. Outbreaks began in Mongolia in 1330 and spread quickly to China and Italy and then to the rest of Europe and parts of Asia. Outbreaks in Europe went on until around the 1720s. Those in Asia continued until the early 1900s. The disease is not extinct and still resurfaces at times where hygeine is poor. It's carried by rats and the fleas that live on them.
