Well it certainly radically changed the way people lived. Of course, we eventually emerged stronger as a species, but yeah I'd say the plague falls into the category of EOWAWKI... in fact I'd probably say it's a decent threshhold for what defines EOW... anything less significant is not probably not worth discussing in this context.
