Apporixmately 75 million people died, however this is a rough estimate due to the fact that it was hard in those times to find how many people died.

Estimates for the number of people who died in the Black Death range from 75,000,000 to 200,000,000. The number of people who got it and survived was the same or fewer.
Estimates vary widely. It is thought that the worldwide toll during the 14th century was between 75,000,000 and 200,000,000.

The Plague (or called "Black Death") was an epidemic that struck Europe. People from China and Mongolia came with infected fleas carried by rats going aboard ships and that were transported to Italy, Greece and France; when the ships docked, the rats left the ships entering cities bringing the fleas and disease with them. In 1348 the virus, known as the Yersinia pestisbacterium and until 1351 the bacterium had killed 1/3 of Europe. Leaving fewer farmers and other people that held jobs that were important to the economy. Other break outs occurred between 1451-1721.

Plague is still around today in small numbers and is treated with antibiotics.

Figures are uncertain, but estimates range from 75-250 million. Estimated percentages are 45-50% of Europe's population, from 20% in northern Europe to as high as 75-80% along the Mediterranean coastal countries.
