That’s scary! I thought that the plague was wiped out a century or so ago.

No. Plague is still around but people usually don't die of it.

Of course what is called Plague nowadays is a pale shadow of the "Black Death" version of Plague.

Sort of like what is called flu is small potatoes compared to the Spanish Flu which was the last great pandemic.
