no it was a red x
A red cross or 'x' to warn the public not to go inside the house and show to the plague doctors which house/s to watch. ---- The person or people inside of a marked house were locked inside with the others in the house even if there were healthy people inside of it. soon,the infected in the house would pass on infections to the healthier and everyone in the house would die. ---- 1-2 weeks later,plague doctors with long beak shaped masks (stuffed with lavender to stop the terrible smell) would burst down marked doors and haul the bodies into deep pits dug randomly about sites of the plague ridden areas.
when a family got the plague they would be locked in the house and left to die
Yes, and in fact, whole families would be sealed into their house if one member was known to have the plague.
Well, every so often a Dr. would come and check on you and your family, and he would know the symptoms of the plague.Then he would lock you and everyone else who lived in the house up.After if the person who has the plague is dead the rest of the family (if they have not caught the plague yet) will stay in the house for 40 day's and night's.If they have not caught the plague yet they are free to leave.
Plague is a disease that is spread by the fleas of infected rats. If you can kill all the rats, you can slow down the spread of plague. Unfortunately, the highly superstitious people of the middle ages associated cats with witchcraft with the devil, so many towns killed all their cats - which allowed rats to take over, and the plague came with them. So if you don't have plague, leave town and live in a cottage with lots of cats. You'll be safe from plague. Until the villagers come to burn down your house, because of all the cats.....
