Syphilis v. Plague

This is why I love infectious disease epidemiology.  The last question on my latest homework assignment:

Which outbreak (Syphilis or Plague) is likely to be easier to control? Explain.

I had to exercise a bit of restraint to avoid responding, "Who in their right mind would rather have bubonic plague than VD?"
