The plague affected Shakespeare work because whenever an outbreak occured, all theaters in the area were shut down, and this is what happened to the Curtain Theatre in 1596, a theater associated with Shakespeare. At that time the Lord Chamberlain's Men went on tour of Kent. Shakespeare nearly died of the plague when he was a baby. He lost one brother and a sister to it.
Hamnet was Shakespeare's son, and it affected Shakespeare financially, although I'm not exactly sure how. William Shakespeare was terrified of the plague because he lost a lot of his brothers and sisters to it during the first major outbreak of the Bubonic plague. This is what Shakespeare's only son, Hamnet, died from, so you can imagine his devastation. Also...affect with an 'a' is a verb, effect with an 'e' is a noun. (Cause and effect, This affects that)
There is no reason to believe that Shakespeare was particularly afraid of any disease. He did lose a couple of siblings to the plague, but so did everyone. It was nothing to get excited about.

Bubonic Plague
the plague
Shakespeare was alive later than when the plague killed Europe.
no atleast i do not think so
It's a disease carried by rats which infects the lymphatic system, causing swellings in the lymph nodes called buboes. It spread all around Europe very quickly in the fourteenth century and killed about a third of the population. By Shakespeare's time, a different type of plague called pneumonic plague was the main killer. Shakespeare himself narrowly escaped the plague as a baby and his sister Anne and brother Edmund both died of it.
the black Death had nothing to do with Shakespeare,the plague was caused by the Flea off the rat.

No. Shakespeare was born around 200 year later when the plague started. So he wouldn't of been affected by it. And see all the gruesome things that went on besides it. :) Hope this helped.
Bubonic Plague
No, there is no evidence of plague in Stratford at the time Shakespeare died.

There was an outbreak of plague in Stratford at about the time of Shakespeare's birth but Shakespeare didn't get it.
