Can you survive bubonic plague?

Sure you can! The bacteria that causes the bubonic plague feeds off of iron. If you are anemic, there is not enough iron in your system to keep the bacterium alive. This is where bloodletting becomes useful. Today, when somebody comes down with plague, we feed them antibiotics. They often work. And of course, getting a lot of rest is also useful. your body is better able to create antibodies and resist disease when you are well-rested.

What were the plague doctors responsinble for?

Plague doctors were responsible for treating victims of the bubonic plague and other infectious diseases during outbreaks, particularly in the 14th to 17th centuries. They often wore distinctive protective clothing, including beaked masks filled with aromatic substances, as they believed this would shield them from miasma, or "bad air." Their role included diagnosing illnesses, providing rudimentary treatments, and sometimes documenting cases for public health records. However, their effectiveness was limited due to the lack of understanding of disease transmission at the time.


What will people do to stop black death from happening again?

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.
