The drugs they use against Buruli are not found in Neosporin.
Currently they are using Rifampin plus clarithromycin or Rifampin and Moxifloxacin.
The “experts” don’t really know how the bacteria are transmitted but contaminated water, mosquito bites, possums poop are possibly transmission modes.
The bacteria are in the same class of organisms (mycobacterium ) which cause TB and/or leprosy.
Slow growing little creeps.
Hydrogen peroxide may be helpful as a topical disinfectant and there is some evidence that 6% acetic acid(vinegar is about 5% acetic acid) is a good disinfectant.
One problem is that lesions are so slowly growing it would be difficult to know how effective these treatments are....
One thing to notice: the continual mixing of infected vectors into human society is gonna’ spread lots of diseases.
The continual drumbeat of the idea that diversity and cohahabitation of diseased entities (animal, plant, human) as a necessary policy to avoid “racism” or provincialism or “stick in the mud” prudery may soon be overturned by rising morbidity and mortality rates.
FYI and Freegards.
Those are tough bugs; by the class of which I am concluding they bear fungal properties? How is that expressed?

As intended.
You didn't mention it, but the fad in "connecting corridors" for wildlife is also a pathway for contagion (Reed Noss should be diced into a bucket for that one). It also induces hybridization that effectively extirpates species (such as wolves) whose genetic distances were maintained by aboriginally-effected niche separation. Val Geist was big on that one (miss him, bigtime).

Or not. Liberills seem immune to information when it threatens their primacy they believe to be sustained by ideology. It's especially when that gets fuzzed it becomes a problem.
