Affects the blood and turns the skin black. 2.The Bubonic plague (most common)- also transmitted by direct contact with a flea. It is distinguishable by large bubbles on the skin. 3.The Pneumonic plague- was transmitted through airborne droplets of saliva coughed up by Bubonic or Septicemic infected humans.
