(approx. 20 million people) (25 million in China) Ripped communities and families apart Pope Clement VI- Leadership Issues Dramatically Decreased Trade

Many scholars think that the nursery rhyme “Ring around the Rosy” was written about the symptoms of the Black Death. This charming rhyme still recited by children today dates back to the London Plague of 1665. The “ring of roses” describes the red buboes around the neck of an infected person (swollen lymph nodes); “posies” refers to the herbs or flowers that people carried in their pockets to breathe hoping it would protect them from the disease; “at-choo” refers to a sneeze which was the sign of coming illness. “All fall down” describes the suddenness of death from what is today called “Black Death” or Bubonic Plague.

Effects of the Bubonic Plague Increased Wages Prices rose (inflation) Serfs left manors Jews were blamed (increased anti- Semitism) The church lost power European Renaissance?
