Also Known As… Black Plague It was the bubonic plague (named for big black buboes, or swellings, that appeared on victims’ bodies) They did not know what caused it VERY Contagious

The greatest catastrophe or disaster in the history of the world The greatest catastrophe or disaster in the history of the world. It was silent and invisible. In the Mid-14th Century fleas on rats spread it throughout Europe on the trade routs!

What caused the plague? The question that you are probably thinking is... Who or what caused the Black Death? This is your answer!!! The Oriental Rat Flea!

How was the plague transmitted? We now know that the most common form of the Black Death was the BUBONIC PLAGUE! This disease was spread by fleas which lived on the black rat. The fleas sucked the rat’s blood which contained the plague germs. When the rat died the fleas jumped on to humans and passed on the deadly disease.

How the Plague was spread Flea drinks rat blood that carries the bacteria. Bacteria multiply in flea’s gut. Human is Infected with the Plague! Flea gut clogged with bacteria. Flea bites human regurgitates blood into open wound.

35% - 70% of each infected area (town or country) died The Mortality Rate 25,000,000 dead !!!
