plague
/plāɡ/
noun
- a contagious bacterial disease characterized by fever and delirium, typically with the formation of buboes ( bubonic plague ) and sometimes infection of the lungs ( pneumonic plague ).
- “an outbreak of plague”
Other than the fact that this is viral and not bacterial, it’s a plague by any other standard. What’s the point of your semantics, exactly?
