The plague arrived in Europe in October 1347, when 12 ships from the Black Sea docked at the Sicilian port of Messina. ]]> 2020-09-16 04:57:27 UTC https://padlet.com/apjanillasalamat/ydukrt8nvvzhh7hg/wish/750509299 2."HOW DID THE VIRUS SPARED?" apjanillasalamat https://padlet.com/apjanillasalamat/ydukrt8nvvzhh7hg/wish/750512110 The Black Death was terrifyingly, indiscriminately contagious: “the mere touching of the clothes,” wrote Boccaccio, “appeared to itself to communicate the malady to the toucher.” The disease was also terrifyingly efficient. ]]> 2020-09-16 04:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/apjanillasalamat/ydukrt8nvvzhh7hg/wish/750512110 Information People gathered on the docks were met with a horrifying surprise: Most sailors aboard the ships were dead, and those still alive were gravely ill and covered in black boils that oozed blood and pus. Sicilian authorities hastily ordered the fleet of “death ships” out of the harbor, but it was too late: Over the next five years, the Black Death would kill more than 20 million people in Europe—almost one-third of the continent’s population. https://padlet.com/apjanillasalamat/ydukrt8nvvzhh7hg/wish/750512578 2020-09-16 04:59:26 UTC https://padlet.com/apjanillasalamat/ydukrt8nvvzhh7hg/wish/750512578 Symptoms of the Black Plague https://padlet.com/apjanillasalamat/ydukrt8nvvzhh7hg/wish/750521438 Europeans were scarcely equipped for the horrible reality of the Black Death. “In men and women alike,” the Italian poet Giovanni Boccaccio wrote, “at the beginning of the malady, certain swellings, either on the groin or under the armpits…waxed to the bigness of a common apple, others to the size of an egg, some more and some less, and these the vulgar named plague-boils.”

Blood and pus seeped out of these strange swellings, which were followed by a host of other unpleasant symptoms—fever, chills, vomiting, diarrhea, terrible aches and pains—and then, in short order, death.

The Bubonic Plague attacks the lymphatic system, causing swelling in the lymph nodes. If untreated, the infection can spread to the blood or lungs
