      It was actually the 3rd plague if you count the black death as the first, Spanish flu as the second and covid as the 3rd

        Technically of course The Black Death was not a pandemic, it was an epidemic. It’s just people didn’t really move around very much so they didn’t notice.

        It kept returning to Europe multiple times because the focal point of the disease would move somewhere else for a bit and then come back.
