Which is worse the plague or bubonic plague?

Today, when people say the plague as in a disease, they generally mean the bubonic plague.

However, there are three types of plague:

- bubonic - the kind with the swollen lymph nodes called buboes, that's where the name comes from

- pneumonic - this is transmitted by coughing and people usually die within 2 days of showing symptoms

- septicemic, which is in your blood and causes tissue to die.

Pneumonic is far more contageous and kills quicker than the other two, so that's arguably the worst.
