1) The Black Death began in Florence, Italy. Unclean conditions in which rat then festered set up Europe for destruction. Through intercourse and just being around each other it began to spread and spread throughout the areas. Rats were the main carriers though; therefore, the number of rats depended on the unclean conditions. This meant terrible, terrible horrors for Europe. For a long time, peoples’ lives would be changed. Friends, family, and complete strangers died in your arms. You yourself were constantly scared some stranger would find you one day dead in some alley. People were frightened and there really was nothing they could do.
2) The first recorded sign was the appearance of buboes which oozed pux and bled if they are opened. In the late-stage of the disease, the persons skin would turn black because of subepidermal hemorrhages called purpura had been created. Gangrene would also cause the extremities to darken. This was how it got the name the Black Death.
3) If the black death were to occur today, there is no way to measure the absolute total devastation that would occur. People would break into mass panic and probably think the world was ending as many people did then. Insane people would jump off bridges. Infection would spread more rapidly due to the larger number of people in the present times. In my opinion, life would end. i would be afraid to go outside or live my life.
