Why would mercutio choose the plague as the curse for the houses?
The word "plague" has two meanings. "The Plague" is a specific disease, or rather a series of specific diseases: bubonic plague, pneumonic plague etc. On the other hand "a plague" is any rapidly spreading epidemic. The King James Bible, contemporary with Shakespeare, talks about "the plague of leprosy", and obviously leprosy and plague are two very different diseases. It is this secondary sense which Mercutio uses in his curse: he is wishing some unspecified epidemic disease on the Montagues and Capulets, not the specific disease called "the plague".
