The Plauge killed millions of people. The horrible disease turned the skin & tounge black. In about three to seven days, lymphnodes became sore, tender, and are termed buboes and the patient may also develop fever, chills, and weakness. In those days, there was no cure for the Plauge. People had to live through it as long as they could, and die a painful death. The Plauge was used as a weapon. People would throw dead bodies of plauge victims over walls with a catapult, trying to give it to those on the other side.
