in some cities during the height of the epidemic, 50% of the people died from it. so one in 2 people.
it was important because the black death could risk a life of someone if they catch it.
You can try to stay away from other people who have it, but it will soon spread to you anyways and you will catch it. (and most likely die)
in the philipians
you cant really cant something as harmful and leeful as the black death today.
People caught Black Death by the fleas transferring the virus to humans.
The black death has not been known in Britain for 400 years now and even then it was only in London, the only time it was at its worst was in 1348 almost 700 years ago. nowadays are ammune systems are alot better and there are no cases of it anywhere so id say for now you cant catch it in England or Britain or even Europe. the most likely place to catch it is in the middle east but even then there almost no chance of you getting it.
The first recorded case of the Black Death was in China in 1334, spreading along trade routes. It is not possible to identify a single person as the first to catch the disease due to its rapid spread and lack of detailed historical records.
not very likely as the world is too clean
the black plague does still exist today, however it is a really rare disease
The Black Death was so named because of the black color of the lymph nodes because they filled with clotted blood. The disease was also incredibly fatal and highly contagious, so death was likely if someone contracted the disease. It can be treated with antibiotics now.
There are historical and medical accounts that the black death very well could have existed and most likely did occur.
yes, but don't worry it's only in some places!
