The bubonic plague killed 35% to 50% of the European population. The death toll was much higher in urban
areas than in rural ones. The disproportion of mortality
rates can be attributed to fact that cities were more
densely populated than rural areas. England and Italy
were mostly affected; in some towns, the plague claimed
70-80% of the residents. The high death rates resulted in
a large amount of wealth and property being passed from
one owner to another as people moved from the country
to the city... Priests and other members of the clergy
contracted the plague at a higher rate, because they had
more contact with people infected by the disease. Because
of the high mortality rate, the church was desperately in
need of new priests. Many young priests were ordained
without proper training. These inexperienced clergymen
caused many to lose respect for the church.
According to the passage, what were the effects of the
plague? Select all that apply.
About 70 percent of Europeans died.
The plague resulted in people moving to the cities.
The plague caused people to lose faith in the
church.
More people enrolled in universities and became
priests.
Wealth and property changed hands after people
died.
