Was the bubonic plague only in Europe?

Answer 1

Yes, the Bubonic Plague was world wide because it was spread by a bacterium called yersenis pestis. This bacterium was found insoil and on fleas, this spread to rats then humans. The pneumonic plague was caused when infected humans breathed on each other and it spread from one to another.

Plague or Black Plague started in Europe around 1347. It was a terrible disease that was carried out with black rats and fleas. This terrible disease was affected the Medieval society. It was a terrible because so many peasants died and that nobody was left to farm the land and do the daily work.

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. Around 1348 the virus had killed 1/3 of Europe. Leaving fewer farmers and other people that held jobs that were important to the economy. The Europeans blamed the Jews for the plague by poisoning the water but it really was caused by flea bites. Other break outs occurred between 1451-1721.

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