Medicine was not known in the middle ages, so many people died of the cure more times than the disease. When the plague hit and large numbers were sick there are historical accounts that areas of towns were bricked up and closed off to keep the sick in apart from the healthy. This was done Edinburgh, Scotland. In Venice, Italy 55,000 sick with plague were put on an island in the lagoon and allowed to die.
