That doesn't make it any less heartbreaking to read about. Protocols and supplies to help family take care of their own might have meant that the sick didn't have to die alone, but there wasn't enough time once the scope of the problem was known.
If I were a villager without resources, would I be willing to stay and tend the sick knowing I'd probably die too? Christians used to.

I don't know if I would. There are so many hundreds of good excuses to choose from that it would be easy to find one that suited.
