Europe, 1353: Only ca. 33% of the population died due to bubonic (or pneumonic) plague. 2 out of 3 people survived, so what is all the "black death" fuzz about!?

Eastern Roman empire, 6th century: Ca. 20% of the people die due to what most probably was the plague. 8 out of 10 people survived, so what was all the fuzz about?
