Well that would make a great slogan. Leprosy is on the rise and Florida is a hot spot with 20% of all cases. However, rest easily knowing Desantis is addressing meat alternatives with legislation. Leprosy is spreading in Florida According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last year, there were 159 new cases of leprosy in the U.S. in 2020, around a fifth of which were in Florida. Of the Florida cases, 81 percent were found in central Florida. "Florida reported 10 cases of leprosy every year between 2002 and 2014. This rose to 29 new cases in 2015. There were 15 new cases in 2023," Francisca Mutapi, a professor in Global Health Infection and Immunity and co-director of the Global Health Academy at the University of Edinburgh, told Newsweek. "We currently do not know what is driving the reported increase of leprosy cases in Florida. Studies are currently underway to determine how infections are being transmitted, i.e., between humans vs infections from animals to humans. People may become infected from other people with untreated leprosy or from the nine-banded armadillo, a natural host of the bacteria causing the disease," Mutapi said.
Armadillos can carry leprosy. I keep them out of my property. New evidence that wild armadillos spread leprosy to humans
Well Florida's surgeon general practices medieval medicine so makes sense that there'd be an increase in medieval diseases.
I’ve had fried armadillo. Taste like chicken. I’m being serious. Had rattlesnake at the same picnic. Wasn’t impressed with either.
Let’s get the demon semen doctor on the case. She did work for the same grifting sham that Ladapo did, after all. I hear they’re tight.
I have shot a lot of them because they dig up the garden and grass. I don't clean or eat them and don't plan to start. The buzzards clean them up pretty fast though.
