A person with bubonic plague will carry it with them. I am uncertain as to whether or not they can then transmit this plague to other people. As I understood it from my school days in the 1950s a person got plague because they were first bitten by a flea carrying the disease. I'm not sure of the incubation period, but think it may only be about seven days.
In effect, plague is spread through a population by fleas carrying the disease, which is then inocculated into the person they visit to suck blood.

Yes, some do. In the past the usual means of transportation was by sea, the plague rats would hitch rides on the ships and they and the people they infected would get off at the ports they sought refuge in. Today it might not be as bad, but still possible.

If someone is not exposed to the plague they do not carry the plague. If they are exposed the are usually quarantined for a time to monitor symptoms. It does not take long for symptoms to start and are hard to miss. If they do not show symptoms they could potentially "escape" the plague, but still do not carry it.

That's pretty funny. It reminded me of reading about when the "Black Plague" was an epidemic in Europe.
Some cities had walls around them and wouldn't let ships port or let the ships crew come into the city.
So the Ships crew catapulted their diseased plagued dead over the walls of the city.
Kind of like what Vicente Fox is doing to America, sending us his diseased so he can spread disease to Americans.
We should start catapulting illegal aliens back over the boarder!

Most probably. That's why one shouldn't escape the plague area. Its cure is natural. You can survive but if death is in your fate, you can not run away from it to anywhere in the world

No. If they carry the plague then they didn't escape it.

It's hard for them to avoid it. Hence the well known saying
"You can take the girl out of Croydon* but you can't take Croydon out of the girl"
*substitute any place name here
But if you shake the dust of Croydon from your feet very thoroughly as you leave, you might just get away with a clean pair of heels !

It depends on which plague.
