The black death in Europe was caused by a virus which was carried by fleas. The fleas resided on the backs of black rats. The rats would help move the fleas, thus helping to move the virus. The fleas would bite people, which resulted in the people becoming infected.

(Today you can get medication from doctor for a flea's bite from a black rat.)
