The biggest one, the bubonic plague - killed 30% of people and it was spread due to the the rats. Once they started killing the rats it disappeared, since it could hardly spread from person to person.
Smallpox only spread from face-to-face and prolonged contact. Not really sure why it spread so much, if people just stopped meeting each other during an outbreak.
Spanish Influenza was, much like Covid-19, a media hoax.
If you find a super spreading, super-deadly virus, its probably a product of thousands of man-hours of dedicated scientists hell bent on destroying humanity. The only way that to be possible is if they have long incubation periods AND can transmit asymptomatically (SARS-Cov-2 does NOT transmit asymptomatically)
I just had a thought…
What if the plagues of the Middle Ages were overblown and mostly fake news?
I’m sure unsanitary water killed many but imaginary germ warfare might have been a control tactic outside of the last 200 years.
