Leprosy is another form of Herpes virus.

BEEP! Thanks for playing, but NO! Leprosy is caused by a bacteria and is pretty easy to treat.

Leprosy is not only fairly easy to treat, most varieties of this disease are NOT contagious.

When I was in school they told us it was a form of herpes. I just looked it up and you are right, but it is often found along with herpes, so maybe that is why someone taught us incorrectly. Anyway, they said that it was not so easy to treat. I ‘ll have to wait until tomorrow to find out why, though, because my satellite connection is not working very well tonight.
