In the Black Death, Poland was basically spared. Why is that? When it was surrounded by it.

Why was Poland so untouched or a better way hardly touched by the Plague? It was surrounded by it since it reached from Spain to Moscow. With Poland smack right in the middle, I just don't understand why it was spared.
