How did ebola and the bubonic plague get under control?

How come ebola or the bubonic plague didn't wipe out the entire population of the earth? They are so infectious, I just don't understand how it ever stopped.How did ebola and the bubonic plague get under control?
ebola is something fairly new. health services in africa take drastic action to stop it. bubonic plague just burned itself out. it is still around, but modern sanitation has helped keep it in check. why the plague stopped is a good question. maybe the rats carrying the fleas got something that killed them.How did ebola and the bubonic plague get under control?
I don't think Ebola is actually gone. I think it has just slowed down, and is under control.


Quarantine is one way to stop infectious diseases from spreading. It will make it's way through a small community, and then die off.
