Oh no. Now they’ll bring everyone with leprosy to the U. S. for a cure.

The inmate is from Micronesia, and officials believe he contracted the infection there. It can take up to 20 years for signs of the disease to appear.
Awesome. Importing more exotic diseases from foreign countries.

It’s starting to look as though the leftwing progressives have progressed us all the way back around to the Dark Ages. One of those “circle of life” things I guess.

“...but health officials aren’t concerned the infection will spread.”
Just because the government doesn’t care or isn’t “concerned” doesn’t mean it won’t become a problem.

Simply amazing. By becoming the dumping ground for the world’s trash, we have resurrected diseases that were virtually unheard of here half a century ago. What’s next? Croup? King’s Itch? Catarrh?

Was this guy wrestling with armadillos? Seriously, about one third of all leprosy cases in the U.S. is the result of it being transmitted by armadillos. Weird, huh? By the way, on a recent trip down South and into Florida, I was surprised to see much armadillo roadkill. How the heck did armadillos cross the Mississippi?

This disease stuff is getting absolutely biblical. BTW, which party booed God at their convention?
