Floridians have to deal with more than their idiot/racist/psychopathic governor and huge snakes. Hansen's Disease, aka leprosy, is surging. 34% of new case patients acquired it locally, as opposed to moving there from leprosy-endemic areas. Leprosy isn't as frightening as it used to be but if it's left untreated, something a nation with no free healthcare faces daily, it's much worse. Ugh.
