It is caused by Yersinia pestis , a gram negative bacterium . Like other forms of Gram negative bacteria gram negative sepsis , septicemic plague can cause disseminated intravascular coagulation , and is almost always fatal the mortality rate in the medieval times was 99 100 percent . Septicemic plague is the rarest of the three plagues that struck Europe in 1348, the other forms are bubonic and pneumonic plague. This disease is contracted usually through the bite of an infected rodent or bug, but can also be contracted through an opening in the skin or by cough from another infected human. The septicemic plague occurs when the bacteria multiply in the blood, causing bacteremia and severe sepsis. In septicemic plague, bacterial endotoxins cause disseminated intravascular coagulation DIC , causing tiny clots throughout the body and possibly ischaemic necrosis tissue death due to lack of circulation perfusion to that tissue from the clots. DIC results in depletion of the body s clotting resources, so that it can no longer control bleeding. Consequently, there is bleeding into the skin and other organs, which can cause red and or black patchy rash and hemoptysis haemoptysis coughing up or vomiting of blood . There are bumps on the skin that look somewhat like insect bites these are usually red, and sometimes white in the center. Untreated, septicemic plague is usually fatal. Early treatment with antibiotics reduces the mortality rate to between 4 and 15 percent.
