No, a plague and a virus are not the same. A plague typically refers to a specific disease caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, which is transmitted through fleas or direct contact. In contrast, a virus is a type of infectious agent that can cause various diseases, including the flu, COVID-19, and many others. While both can lead to outbreaks and epidemics, they differ in their biological makeup and mechanisms of transmission.
