What is a pandemic and Epidemic
What causes a pandemic and epidemic
   Pandemic or epidemic are caused when food or water is infected by a 
Disease. For example, typhus, black death, malaria, and covid-19. The disease can be harmful or non harmful. Pandemics are caused when the whole world gets it but an epidemic is when only a country gets it. For example, the covid-19 is a disease that caused the recent pandemic but the Black Death from the middle ages was and it was mostly actually a pandemic.


The First Pandemic
   The first pandemic was the H1N1 flu. The first appearance was in the year 1918-1919. People suffered from a sudden or very high fever, dry cough, headaches and body aches, sore throat, chills, runny nose, loss of  appetite, and also extreme tiredness(fatigue).The H1N1 infected healthy adults 15 to 34 years of adult age. It also infected youngsters at the age of five years old,20 to 40 years old,  65 years and older. The animal that caused this virus is a wild waterfowl.

Recent Pandemic
   The recent pandemic we are dealing with right now from 2019-2023 is the new coronavirus or covid-19. There are four ,major variants from covid Alpha,Beta,Delta,Omicron. Delta is the most deadliest variant out of all of them. It is the most deadly because it can silently replicate themselves, also it replicates fast and spreads more easily than others. In other words replicate means that it can copy itself multiple times. Covid-19 is not that harmful sometimes. Take Omicron as an example. It is not that harmful to kids but it can sometimes be harmful to adults. Sometimes it can(Omicron) lead to death to adults if not treated and sometimes even if treated, can still lead to death sometimes.

How Quarantining Cures You
   It cures people because if someone gets infected they are in their houses because they are quarantined but if someone in the house gets infected the are in the house so it can not spread to others outside.It will help us get better because the virus cannot spread and the treatment that the doctor gave can work and the virus will die.
This is a picture of a dead skeleton praying for humanity and peace from the Black Death.
Black Death
When it Started
   During the 1347 to 1350 the black plague/bubonic/black death. But to be exact it came in October.

How it Started
   It decimated the army of Kipchak Khan. They were from China. Jani Beg catapulted plague infected corpses in an effort to infect enemies. The ships carried an epidemic westward at the Mediterranean ports. Twelve ships came to Venice, Italy from the black sea. Finally,my last reason why the Black Death is the deadliest plague is because it may cause horrible symptoms. Some deadly symptoms that your tissues on your fingertips will blacken because your tissues on your fingertips are dead. 

Which Countries Did It Spread Too
   In (1347) it spread across North Africa, Mainland Italy, Spain, France
   In (1348) it spread across thousands of miles including Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, Germany, Dorset, and other low countries

What Happens If You Get Infected By It
   Once you get infected by the bubonic plague or the bacteria that caused the bubonic plague yersinia pestis it will enter the bloodstream which is the stream that carries our blood all the way through your body. It will also travel to your liver, spleen, kidneys, lungs, and the brain. There are two types of pandemics Pneumonic and Septicemic, pneumonic plagues infects lungs and septicemic plagues mostly infects the blood stream. The black death was a pneumonic and both a bubonic plague because some of the symptoms were easy to escape but some were not.

Symptoms
   The symptoms of once you get the black death is that you will get a fever, you will feel nothing but weakness, You will quickly develop shaking chills, diarrhea, and a lot of pain. You will also get buboes in your groins and armpits. Your tissue on your nose and fingertips will be blackened because they are dead. If you were too weak you would vomit out blood.

How Did The Black Death End
   The Black Death never really ended but the cases got lower after people started using popper hygiene and washing their hands and taking care of themselves. But even if the people are using popper hygiene they still didn’t eliminate it. It is still around in parts of Asia and parts of America in both South and North. In the 1860s Waldemar Mordecai Haffkine made a cure/vaccine for the Black Death. The president and the people were happy and proud of him because he found a cure for it and now people won’t have to worry about dying from it so he got a trophy in 1860. But once he died on 26th of October in 1930 after he died the black death spread even more than the time he was alive.
