Doctors thought the black death was a plague, the virus, unsure. But the virus started as a lump about the size of a Baseball on the arm or leg. Then the lumps would spread, and turn an Erie yellow color. Death would all ways arrive in the next five days max.

What did people think caused the plague?

There were lots and lots of different beliefs about the plague; people were so scared because they weren't sure what caused it. Some believed it was a punishment from God, some believed that foreigners or those who followed a different religion had poisoned the wells, some thought that bad air was responsible, some thought the position of the planets had caused the plague. All these different beliefs led to some strange attempts at escaping the plague and some even stranger cures. cw: Probably it was spread by the fleas on rats; hence, the love of cats.

What did people think the black plague?

They really didn't know what caused it at first then they found out it was the rats. Another Answer: It has been said to be many things that caused the black plague. One theory was that the Jews who traveled from place to place brought it with them but they had built up an immunity to it. Another theory is that the rats that came in on ships and such brought it and it easily spread to people. Yet another theory is that the cats that ate the mice that had the plague came into people's homes as helpers and spread the disease.
