variables and disease spread patterns in both Avian Influenza A (H5N1) and Bubonic Plague. There are two main features of variability between Avian Influenza outbreaks and Bubonic plague pandemics that I find prudent to acknowledge in order to give my cross historical comparison of the political response to these diseases a solid grounding. The first is the basic function and spread of the diseases. Avian Flu and Bubonic plague differ in their level of danger partially due to their transmission
