Black Death 1348-1350
Spread

Italy had very high death rate, some cities as high as 98%
Logical conclusion was that God was punishing European countries (before it hit UK)
Arrives in England in 1348 - Melcombe Regis - Weymouth
100 years war ongoing England vs France
in 1347 England managed to capture Calais
Many goods transported over from calais - luxury goods - cloths etc, good for carrying fleas
Plague spread via rats on boats or fleas on cloth.
Starts to spread to many ports, then inwards, cases coming from all directions made it spread more quickly
Immediate Impact
About a third of all people died (25-50% accepted)
