Black Death, Mac Cornwell
3. The immediate reaction for the people invovled was to be immediatley hospitalized and in most cases some kind of exclusion from the rest of the population to stop the spread of the dieases. For the fleas and rats there was no affect on them because the diease does not affect them.
Known as probably one of the most deadly pandemics the world has ever seen. Black death is caused by a bacteria that swells the lymph nodes in a persons body that was spread by fleas with the help of rodents such as rats. The name for Black Death came about because it would take the life out of people leaving them glum, down, and essentially black while also in most cases killing them hence the death part of the name.
5. All of the groups such as politics, economics, society and religion were affected and alot in the same ways. Politics had their work cut out for them to stop the spread. Economy dropped because there were less interactions of people to stop the spread so less trade occured. Society tried hard not to get the diesease and also was effected because many people were dieing. And religions were not really affected at all.
4. The short term consequences and the long term consequences were both linked because for the short term many people were dieing but as connected to the long term these people owuld pass on the diesease and eventually kill more people in the process causing it to be one of the most deadly pandemics ever.
