Antibiotics help treat infections caused by bacteria, including those responsible for the Black Death, primarily Yersinia pestis. During the Black Death, which occurred in the 14th century, there were no antibiotics available, leading to high mortality rates. Today, antibiotics can effectively combat plague infections if administered early, significantly reducing the severity of the disease and improving survival rates. This highlights the importance of modern medicine in managing historical diseases.
