Venn diagram
Bubonic Plague:
1. Back then they didn't have planes. If it were to travel far it would have to have been done by ship.
2. Wasn't enough info to prevent the plague
3. Everything you touched was contagious
Swine Flu:
1. This disease is spreadable by plane and ships. But most people use planes today
2.Not a lot of people have died compared to the Swine Flu
3. More people wash their hands . Not everything you touch is severely contagious
Both:
1. Both are spreadable
2. Both are caused by animals
3. Both have same symptoms
Paragraph that Mr. Smith made me do for no apparent reason::
The Swine flu and the Bubonic Plague are both alike and different. These are probably the two most epidemic diseases ever to spread. The Swine Flu is not as big as the Bubonic Plague but it probably would've been if people didn't know how to treat or prevent the flu. Both the diseases originated from animals.
