We often forget of looking at the diaries and writing of the people at the time, the ones that actually lived during this time as opposed to academic articles opining on some small piece of data.
The one thing of note was that the outbreak ended as soon as cold set in, specifically the first freeze. The ending was very abrupt, so it seems reasonable to me to ask: what did that frost kill? why was the vector for the plague eliminated by a frost and did not return the next year?
It makes me wonder if mosquitoes (like a specific species) were somehow spreading the disease.
