No. Bubonic plague is transmitted by fleas carried by infected rats or people. The pathogen is typically carried by rodents. In the case of the waves of plague that ravaged Europe and the Mid-East in the middle ages, it was carried by rats and other infected humans.The disease you may be confusing bubonic plague with could be cholera which is transmitted by contamination of water by an infected person's feces.Answer:No, it was caused by rats, but not their excrete. the bubonic plague and pneumonic plague were started by rats who jumped off a ship that had come from countries infected with the plague. It wasn't actually the rats that started it, either. fleas travelled in the dirty hairs of the rats and then flourished in the grime and unhygienic areas near London. The plague spread quickly throughout England and Ireland, and only a small part of Scotland was not affected. 1 in 3 people died, altogether. Many towns and villages were quarantined to stop the plague spreading.

How did The Black Plague spread throughout the world?
The Black Plague devastated Europe killing (an estimated) half of the population and spread into Asia. Supposedly it was the Bubonic Plague spread by fleas on rats. This is the most widely accepted theory. Recently this information has been disputed for several reasons, including temperature in which bubonic plague can thrive, rate of spread and death rates and the fact that there were no rats in some affected areas (such as Iceland). This high mortality rate and fast spread can possibly be attributed to respiratory droplet transmission. This allows a spread without the rats and a much quicker speed. Since the bubonic plague often causes coughing, this means that it could be transmitted via the air (aerosol transmission). A low immunity can account for the death rate, similar to smallpox with Native American populations.
Where was the last place the black death struck?
The Black Death was an outbreak of bubonic plague that started in Asia, reached Europe in 1437, and continued spreading through Europe until 1451. The last areas it spread into were Sweden and the northwestern areas of Russia. The bubonic plague outbreaks returned many times after that. The last widespread outbreak, called the Third Pandemic, started in 1855 and lasted until 1959. The plague breaks out periodically, and a few cases are likely to happen in the United States in any given year, but it is easily treated with modern medicine, and does not spread rapidly in places were rodents are controlled.

Where does the bubonic plague occur the most?
It began in Italy, but killed mostly in Europe, France especially >addendum: currently, its considered a pandemic around the world, but with modern hygiene, there are comparatively few cases. the bubonic plague is most likely to occur in areas with extensive infestation of pest species, eg lots of rodents, which serve as a reservoir for the bacteria that causes the plague (Yersinia pestis). the CDC has records of cases of the plague in the United States with most of the confirmed cases focusing in the western states. There have been studies of prairie dog family group exterminations as a result of Y. pestis infection in the western states, although there are very few clinical presentations of Bubonic plague in humans.
