Estimates vary, but range from an overall Death Rate of 30% to 60% for Europe as a whole. I think a mainstream overall estimate would be that 40% of the population of Europe died from the plague, meaning 60% survived it. Some areas in southern Europe were hit by the plague multiple years running, and had death rates approaching 80% Other areas further from the Mediterranean had significantly lower death rates.
Anther way to interpret this question is what was the mortality rate for those actually infected. Assuming the dominant theory that the plague was a form of Y. pestis infection is correct, such infections have about a 60% mortality rate without treatment, and there would have been no effective treatment at the time.
We do not have accurate records of the percentage of people who survived the Black Death after getting it, but there were large numbers of people who did survive. I have seen artwork of the time showing numbers of monks with plague related scars or markings. Experts seem to agree on survival rates of 30% to 60%.
OMG the world record is like 9'11" that's impossible :D
The black death started around 1437 in Europe.
The Black Death spread across Europe at 4km
The Black Death was spread by fleas and rats. ik..gross
Such is a contradiction in terms; doing so is impossible.
Our ancestors.
Once you go black, you never go back.
It is said to be almost impossible, but in Greek mythologhy, the Black Orchid symbolizes life and death.
Certainly don't panic or freak out. Of course, it is quite impossible to get the Black Death in our days. People do say try to live your life while you still can, so don't think about death.
What_are_the_stages_of_the_Bubonic_PlagueThere was no cure at the time and would be impossible to stop it. This is what happened:
No. It is impossible to jump up to save your life and outrun the downwards pull of a falling lift, as in Mythbusters' Elevator Of Death
5 days, if the buboe didn't pop, then they would live!
id say about a 40/100 chance to survive. id say about a 40/100 chance to survive.
1348, June or August, Bristol or Dorset. Greater precision is impossible.
Because they were lucky enough to survive and they kept away from the people who had the infection.
No some people had the right gene to survive
