There were three strains of the Black Death.

The bubonic strain, that infected ones skin and pores. It would cause large boils. This was the most common strain. As far as I know, you cannot catch it from contact.

You could however, catch it from an infected flea that came from their person.

There was also the septic strain, that infected the blood, and could be passed via transfer of fluids.

And lastly, the pneumonic strain, that infected the lungs. This was contagious.

No it doesn't -it is carried by fleas.

And "flew" is a misspelling.
