Idk why you're posting something from like 7-8 years ago randomly lol, but I'm pretty sure one of the (leading?) theories is that it wasn't just a bubonic plague but also a pneumonic plague, which is why it spread so quickly because then there was person-to-person transfer via aerosols (like how covid is!).

Idk why you are posting this rebuttal which misses major points of the argument for an ebola like virus. The quarantine of 40 days is consistent with the long incubation period of hemorrhagic viruses The spread rate of miles per day is consistent with a long incubation period and inconsistent with the short incubation period of bubonic plague. --- GoldenSun/Crossbone Isle diagrams/ 18 teams known https://photobucket.com/u/SwordOfWheat/a/9990a2ee-25f3-4242-ae79-7d2d4b882be4 ...

Except it's likely the 40 days closely matching is a complete coincidence, especially with that number's importance in Christianity. Basing things around 40 days wasn't uncommon in those days, and actually I'm pretty sure one of the first quarantine requirements was in fact only 30 days. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Lent is important and Lent is 40 days. Show me where else Christian cultures have made stuff 40 days because Lent is. 12 days of Christmas not 40.
But it occurs to me that human fleas could hop on an infected rat, bite and hop back. If human fleas can carry and transmit the bacteria, this would counter argument that there were not enough dead rats. (Checked. Human flea not effective at transmitting plague). --- GoldenSun/Crossbone Isle diagrams/ 18 teams known https://photobucket.com/u/SwordOfWheat/a/9990a2ee-25f3-4242-ae79-7d2d4b882be4 ...

Above does not explain why 40 days quarantine was effective and 2 weeks was not effective. If it was bubonic plague the 2 week quarantine would have sufficed. --- GoldenSun/Crossbone Isle diagrams/ 18 teams known https://photobucket.com/u/SwordOfWheat/a/9990a2ee-25f3-4242-ae79-7d2d4b882be4 ...

just a quick look up will show that there is copious amounts of genetic evidence from remains pointing to yersinia pestis being the cause of the majority of the "black plague" waves. there's also the fact that ebola or something like marburg virus dont really spread that easily. you generally need direct contact of infected fluid (blood/sputum) with an open wound or the mucosal layer, its why healthcare workers and family members get it but the virus doesn't explode out of control. airborn spread isn't really a thing oh, there's also this. https://www.sciencenewsforstudents.org/article/dont-blame-rats-spreading-black-death that suggests that while rats acted as an alternative host for the plague, possibly bringing it into an area, the real issue was when people started getting it since human flea and lice would have been able to spread it from human to human. --- Taarsidath-an halsaam.

"Virus" literally cannot cause black death the bubonic plague is a bacterial infection.

Black death is the name for the pandemic. If it was caused by Bubonic Plague, then the two are the same. Otherwise, the two are different.

Black death is the name for the pandemic. If it was caused by Bubonic Plague, then the two are the same. Otherwise, the two are different.The black death specifically is the spread of bubonic plague in the middle ages in Europe. Bubonic plague had been around for centuries before and it's still around today. Unless there's some mind-blowing evidence that the bubonic plague did not spread during that time there's nothing a virus would have done to impact this. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...

I... Can't wrap my head around this. How utterly lacking are your critical thinking skills to even bother sharing this? It's shockingly nave and gullible.

I read the Scientific papers saying the same thing. I think her exposition covers it.

Basing things around 40 days wasn't uncommon in those days, and actually I'm pretty sure one of the first quarantine requirements was in fact only 30 days. Quarantine is a Roman empire practice in which ships that came to port had to stay docked for 40 days. The word itself essentially is derivative of the latin word for 40. A 40 day isolation period was essentially the standard for like a thousand years by the time the black death happened. Don't read too much into the number. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah dude, you just got all those scientific papers but you thought an 8 year old blog post by a high schooler explained it better. Totally.
The fact of the matter is skeptics have existed for over 4 decades and none have actually found as conclusive evidence to support their position as y. pestis--Such as actual genetic material of y. pestis. That you would even insult our intelligence by posting a high schoolers blog tells me you don't have the mental faculties required to even compose a valid, evidence-based argument to the contrary. Just close the topic and shut the fuck up. --- 'Cause you know that I have no fear, ain't gonna walk into the river and disappear. I'm gonna be a powerful man.
