Was the bubonic plague caused by rat excrement?
No. Bubonic plague is transmitted by fleas carried by infected rats or people. The pathogen is typically carried by rodents. In the case of the waves of plague that ravaged Europe and the Mid-East in the middle ages, it was carried by rats and other infected humans.The disease you may be confusing bubonic plague with could be cholera which is transmitted by contamination of water by an infected person's feces.Answer:No, it was caused by rats, but not their excrete. the bubonic plague and pneumonic plague were started by rats who jumped off a ship that had come from countries infected with the plague. It wasn't actually the rats that started it, either. fleas travelled in the dirty hairs of the rats and then flourished in the grime and unhygienic areas near London. The plague spread quickly throughout England and Ireland, and only a small part of Scotland was not affected. 1 in 3 people died, altogether. Many towns and villages were quarantined to stop the plague spreading.

It was the great fire of London that stopped the plague, people had nothing to do with it as far as I'm concerned. The great fire of London in 1667 was said to have stopped the plague. This was not true. There was very little of the plague left in London when the fire started.
How can smoking make your fingers fall off?
it doesn't necessarily have to be you fingers that fall off and they don't fall off!! smokers have a risk of getting blood clot, if they get blood clot say in their fingers or toes they have to be amputated ( chopped off ) :/ blood clot or clotting is an important process that prevents excessive bleeding when you are cut or blood vessels are injured.
Can you survive bubonic plague?
Sure you can! The bacteria that causes the bubonic plague feeds off of iron. If you are anemic, there is not enough iron in your system to keep the bacterium alive. This is where bloodletting becomes useful. Today, when somebody comes down with plague, we feed them antibiotics. They often work. And of course, getting a lot of rest is also useful. your body is better able to create antibodies and resist disease when you are well-rested.
