Medieval people bathed. And I should also point out that the bubonic plague didn’t spread because of bad hygiene or lack of bathing. In fact, we have very little knowledge of how the plague spread. The vector may not have been fleas as is commonly thought.https://twitter.com/erik_kaars/status/1184041424301330433 …

Anyway I see that get thrown around a lot. The bubonic plague, whether it be in the early medieval period or the late, is a hard to understand disease even with all the research that’s been done. It was horrible and killed many. It was not restricted to Europe either.
