No, it was a seventy percent kill rate if Bubonic Plague got in your lungs, what is called going "pneumonic." Of course that's not the proper terminology, but you get the idea. Your chance of dying varies based on how the bacteria entered your body. Through a skin lesion, forty to fifty percent chance of death (especially if it spreads to one of the following types). Entering through your blood stream or through the lungs, seventy percent chance of death. Symptoms present in a day or two or at most three. The source for all of this information is a poorly remembered informational handout from tenth grade, so don't trust my information. But it might be right. ... Better than nothing.
