The mortality rate of The Great Mortality was ridiculously high. It is currently estimated that a quarter of the European population died, and in London more than one hundred fifty thousand died. Thousands of bodies were buried at a time, and some unfortunate victims were buried alive. (Think about the "I'm not dead yet" scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail)
The name 'the Great Mortality' was coined (so to speak) by the Church, who were really big on dramatic names. Europe was extremely religious at the time, and many thought that this pandemic was god's judgment on a sinful community.
