The cause of the black plague was the blocked flea. This flea would regurgitate the plague into the victims blood stream whilst feeding on them. The fleas had to run off the rat onto a human. The victim would start getting headaches, then chills and fever which made the victim exhausted. The victim might vomit and get soreness in their limbs.
