No, the first plague was the bubonic plague in Rome.ok that person erased my answer. no it was not, the bubonic plague is the same plague, only a different name.

The black plague was not the first plague ever. Outbreaks of many diseases in large numbers are called plagues. The black plague is called that because lymph nodes became swollen and black (gangrenous).

No--after the Black Death in the 1300s, there were multiple large epidemics in England (1550s, 1660s) and there was even a small outbreak in LA, California in 1925-1926. There are till teeny tiny outbreaks today.

Alexandre J. E. Yersin in 1894. Initially, there was controversy over whether Yersin or Kitasato Shibasaburo of Japan had discovered the bacterium first but eventually Yersin was accepted as the discoverer.
