For instance, meningitis, which is a swelling of the brain, septic shock, which includes sporadic blood pressures and a decrease in the activity of the kidney, brain, and possibly other organs as a result of systemic infection, necrosis and bleeding, and swelling around the heart. There is a different rate of survival for each of the manifestations of the plague. For those diagnosed with bubonic plague around thirteen percent of those will succumb. If diagnosed with septicemic plague, either primary or secondary in nature, there is a forty percent mortality rate, even with treatment. And, as discussed earlier, if pneumatic plague is not treated within the first twenty-four hours there is a one hundred percent mortality rate.12 Of all types of the plague, getting treatment can reduce the chances of death by an astonishing fifty percent.
