Which was the mose serious lung disease? Pneumonic version of the Black Plague, or SARS?

I would have to say pneumonic plague, because they didn't have antibiotics at the time. So there was no treatment. But all things being equal, I'm not sure which would have been worse.

SARS since it is airborne, which is a huge advantage for it.
