Due to the mostly isolated population in Poland and Lithuania. By isolated I do not mean cut off from society, but rather Poland was a mostly self sufficient area at the time and the people had little reason to venture outside of their kingdom, so the plague was unable to make much headway. Plus, many Jewish populations from France, Italy, England and Russia all fled to Poland, which provided them a safe haven. The Jews were less affected by the plague then others in Western Europe, because they were often forced to live in separate areas away from the Christian population, thus when the plague broke out among the Christians, the Jews were largely unaffected. Thus, the mortality rate in Poland was negligible compared to that of the rest of Europe.
