New Diseases

Interesting. It is kind of clouded because any skin infection was called Leprosy for a long time. For example the Law in Israel in biblical times said that if Leprosy cleared up you had to go to the Priests to be declared clean.

There's so much erroneous bullshit spewed in that post I'm not even going to try to counter the claims individually.

The water in the Gulf at Biloxi, MS was 72 degrees today. Of course, you can walk out forever and never get deeper than your chest, so "swimming" is a relative term. My g'babies were having a blast in their pool today.
