NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Leprosy, also known as Hansen's disease, is rarely seen in the United States, but cases continue to emerge in Los Angeles County, a new report says.
Dr. Ochoa and colleagues identified 187 patients with the disease in a review of medical records from their leprosy clinic spanning 1973 to 2018.

My ancestors were screened for disease and for their ability to support themselves as they - legally - passed through Ellis Island and other ports of entry. When we give up the rule of law, we give up our safety. Democrats disgust me.

Why did they stop the Leper Hockey Game?

Back in the 1960’s, when Southern California was the fastest growing economy in the world, if someone had predicted that leprosy, typhus and bubonic plague would become a threat to the region during the 21st century, I would have asked him what he was smoking.
Let LA become a leper colony. No one in or out.
