Inside the bubonic plague Sydney suffered during the 1900s

While Sydney grapples with a new coronavirus outbreak, more than 100 years ago the bubonic plague was wreaking havoc across the city. The plague sparked panic as it spread throughout Sydney s CBD from 1900 to 1908 and left more than 1,300 people infected, killing 535 across Australia, including young children. Commonly referred to as the Black Death due to the swollen and blackened colour infected people s skin would develop, the pandemic spread from ticks found on rats. The third bubonic plague started in northern China in 1855, and by 1899 it was found in Noumea - just 3,000km from Australia. Soon enough hundreds of people were falling ill suffering fevers, nausea, headaches, chills and swollen and painful lymph nodes.
