Re: I thought this one was fairly clear to be "proper" plague

I dont buy the 'spread by coughs and sneezes' version of the Black Death, since many people ran away from contact with others, and yet still died.

Obviously in London, its likely that pneumonic would dominate. But in the countryside? I dont think so.
