Move over, COVID-19, and say hello to leprosy. Yes, that leprosy, the biblical plague from the Old and New Testaments.
That’s according to the CDC, which says that there is “rising evidence that leprosy has become endemic in the southeastern United States.”
Leprosy, also called Hanson’s Disease, is an infection caused by slow-growing bacteria called Mycobacterium leprae, according to the CDC. “It can affect the nerves, skin, eyes, and lining of the nose (nasal mucosa).” Up to 2 million people worldwide are permanently disabled from the disease, which can be transmitted by “prolonged, close contact with someone with untreated leprosy over many months.” It is thought to be spread via respiratory droplets—

When I lived in Dallas and worked at Parkland, it would pop up from time to time. Leprosy has been in the US for years. Maybe the distribution and frequency are changing though.

Leprosy doesn’t bother me as much as some of the diseases the illegals are pouring into the US like med resistance tuberculosis.

The uneducated and diseased-ridden ILLEGALS will soon be entering the schools and have glided into the hospital emergency rooms. Courtesy of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro "Monster" Mayorkas. The Demented Fuhrer and Jill could be sharing a bowl of ice cream.

Covid didn't kill enough of us (and we finally stated to rebell and the truth is coming out) so it's Plan B. Leprosy ab TB. They are not talking about either one. I remember getting a TB test in school in the l950's. And here we are having to deal with it again. Man, we are on their hit list. Let's not forget FJB is always telling us the Federal Government has nukes and they will use them against us.

If this is medicine resistant TB, we're out of luck. As for leprosy, there is a cure. It was discovered in Carville, Louisiana, at the leprosy hospital that used to be there. Yeah, that's where James hails from. But it is curable.

One of the many "benefits" of open bor Dem rs and criminals running the CDC and other national health organizations.
Pure evil. We used to have borders and medical standards.

Relax. These disease discoveries are just part of Biden’s and the current extreme left Democrat Party’s “New America” that the Democrats maintain that over 80 million Americans voted for! The Democrats believe that the incoming so-called migrants in unlimited numbers who are actually illegal aliens under US Immigration laws, and who mostly all fit within the minority group categories of Democrat identity politics, will eventually be transformed by way of a series of Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesties into becoming future leftist Democrat supporters and voters by the tens of millions. It looks like the wimpy Republicans don’t have a clue!

The dems are praying to a God they don't believe exists for a reason to start another lock down, just like Covid. If there is a God he will bring some kind of a plague to help them win.
I feel it is my job to help the dems out. So here you go. Lock up Trump even before any trial.(Say it is for the good of the country) It will start another Civil War.The dems will say...we can't have an election in the middle of a war. Like they did with FDR during WWII. President Biden must be allowed to continue past the end of his term.
I have to warn you...using this strategy you will lose. Remember the good guys have a lot more guns than the bad guys.
Besides the dems hate guns and they think all guns are AR-15's.
Good luck with your civil war...you'll need it.

If recent experience is any indicator, the illegals will be openly permitted without testing, and citizens will be required to mask up and get "vaccinated".

#7, it is good there is a cure for leprosy. However, on a similar topic, are any of you having trouble filling prescriptions? It is getting very difficult to get some drugs in my area. I was so glad to hear that President Trump wants to being back drug manufacturing to this country. Depending on foreign countries to supply us with needed medicines is insane especially when they are our enemies.

Leprosy schmeprosy. Whats really important is the cultural enrichment we get from having our own successful society wiped out, to be replaced by diseased, illiterate people from failed cultures.

According to the International Leprosy Association, "Leprosy spread to the southern states of the United States between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. The first known cases of leprosy in Louisiana were in 1758. In 1866, French immigrants with leprosy were recorded in Louisiana, and leprosy was recorded in San Francisco in 1875."
(Of course, there were no "southern states" or even a "United States" in 1758, but take that as a poor way identifying the geographic area.)
I grew up in the South being taught not to mess with armadillos because you could catch leprosy from them.

"Alms for an ex-leper?" was one of the best scenes from Life of Brian.

Leprosy is completely treatable now and is not the “plague” it once was.
