Anonymous Leprosy cases are on the rise (...) 08/07/26(Fri)12:45:21 No. 1528063 Cases of leprosy are rising in Florida, with officials working to understand what's behind the spread of the rare 4,000-year-old bacterial infection. Leprosy, also known as Hansen's disease, can impact a person's nerves, muscles, skin, eyes and respiratory tract, causing large bumps all over the skin and lead to paralysis and blindness. Stigma surrounding infections has spread wider than the disease itself but the late Mother Teresa, a champion for the poor and disenfranchised, helped draw attention to the suffering caused by discriminatory attitudes. Untreated patients infected with the bacteria, known as M. leprae, are believed to be the main source of infection, spreading the disease to other humans even months later, Florida health authorities say. It may take up to 20 years after contact with the bacteria to develop signs of the disease. "Transmission requires prolonged close contact with someone known to be infected and not treated," the department said. People who are in close contact with people who may be infected should seek out medical care for a blood or nerve test to see if they are affected. https://health.yahoo.com/articles/leprosy-cases-rise-florida-reduce-200625481.html >>

Anonymous 08/07/26(Fri)13:30:31 No. 1528089 >>1528071 India has the largest population of lepores on earth and leprosy is common over there. Florida has been flooding itself with immigrants from India the past 5 years. Suddenly an ancient disease thats still common in India breaks out in the areas where you have the most India immigrants. Thats causality.>>
Anonymous 08/07/26(Fri)13:32:30 No. 1528091 >>1528089 Retard Indians have been immigrating and traveling to the US for much longer than 5 years. The difference is now we have a crippled CDC that cares more about whatever random bullshit RFK read that week than actually preventing, treating, and monitoring infectious diseases. We broke the filter and are now shocked the water is dirty.>>

Turns out if you brainwash a part of your population into not trusting doctors, they start getting sick.>>

Anonymous 08/07/26(Fri)17:34:17 No. 1528162 >>1528156 Nah its Indians. Even the article admits it isn't from the wildlife. An infected person can carry it for over 20 years without showing signs. Patels move to Florida and of course bring along their entire family of 40 which includes the elderly who have had leprosy for decades. Thats why you didn't see outbreaks 40 years ago. Only started when Indians began getting imported into Florida.>>
Anonymous 08/07/26(Fri)18:08:12 No. 1528172 i'm starting to think esl shill brought leprosy to Florida I know its impossible because they don't have a visa or the money to visit the US, but maybe they spit on every American that visited their village or something >>

Anonymous 08/08/26(Sat)10:25:17 No. 1528399 >>1528359 And Florida has been importing way more Indian immigrants in recent years. Not as many as Texas is doing but more than enough to cause a leprosy outbreak. There will be more biological outbreaks caused by Indian immigrants. Some might even be intentional like the bioattack they did in 1984 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984_Rajneeshee_bioterror_attack >>

Also Leprosy also spreads from armadillos native to Florida and the contaminated soil around their burrows. People getting it from touching armadillos? Unlikely. People getting it from touching soil the armadillos live in? Much more likely.>>

Complete loss of sensation; the reputation lepers have for missing limbs is less due to the disease itself taking them and more because the loss of sensation pretty much inevitably leads to the affected sites getting infected cuts that spiral because they don't notice until it's too late. It is very much a "big deal" if you catch it. Nerve damage isn't a joke.>>
