How different were the Religious reactions to the Black Death (Second Plague Pandemic)?

I just saw the Extra History Video on Ibn Battuta's Travels, Where the narrator mentioned in passing that Muslims had a more passive reaction to the whole ordeal, accepting it as some sort of merciful judgement. In contrast, it is also mentioned that Christians reactions were much more chaotic since they considered to be a sign of their sins.

I'm curious about the reaction of other religions to this pandemic, especially Indian religions like Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism
