Yup the ones that lived got better, their immune system got stronger, the rest just died of cholera, tuberculosis, consumption, influenza, typhus, yellow fever, smallpox, food poisoning , infections or any number of common things they used to spread around, get sick and die from cause they didn't know any better.

Drinking out of a ditch, puddle, rusty hubcap, or the cows water trough doesn't bother me, chances are no other human has drank out of it and left their viruses there in ages. Might have got the runs on occasion though...lol...
