The grim reality is that plague in the capital is as common as the stench of the cesspits and almost as unavoidable. You cannot predict where it will strike: People living next door to infected houses are left unaffected. Some people are not touched even when others in their own house have it. Which sentence best summarizes the excerpt? The plague was unavoidable, and unpredictable in regards to whom it would affect. The plague was associated with filthy cesspits. It was a dirty disease with a foul odor. People in diseased homes should certainly have left immediately to avoid infection. The capital was the center of all medical care, and Elizabethans came for treatment.
