re: #152 Dark_Falcon

There were actually a lot of ‘healthy’ lepers. There are two forms of leprosy, wet (Lepromatous) and dry (Tuberculoid). The former is the one that attacks the mucus membranes and leads to the really awful degeneration and infects easily, the latter tends to attack ‘only’ the skin and extremities, is much much harder to transmit, and people with it, even untreated, can live a long and otherwise relatively healthy time.
