the black plague was just a normal bacteria, and yet it nearly destroyed entire countries; god forbid a virus that actively tries to kill you rather than just causing it as a side effect. Not really. They feed off of humans. They don't want to kill them outright, at least not at first. It can take decades for this Grimm to take it's toll on the host, not to mention you usually have to be in prolonged contact with a carrier Grimm, so really only Huntsmen and victims of Gimm attacks are the only ones at risk.

And have you seen what Black Death does to a person? That shit is not normal.

Oh and some psycho nutjobs have even said the Black Death may be an alien plague. Fucking weirdos.
