The black death in Europe was caused by a virus which was carried by fleas. The fleas resided on the backs of black rats. The rats would help move the fleas, thus helping to mâ¦ove the virus. The fleas would bite people, which resulted in the people becoming infected.
Plague is an infectious disease caused by bacteria called Yersinia pestis. These bacteria are found mainly in rodents, particularly rats, and in the fleas that feed on them. Other animals and humans usually contract the bacteria from rodent or flea bites. Historically, plague destroyed entire civilizations. In the 1300s, the Black Death, as it was called, killed approximately one-third (20 to 30 million) of Europe's population. In the mid-1800s, it killed 12 million people in China.
