CDC: Researchers Suggest Leprosy May Become Endemic in Florida
August 1, 2023 — Breitbart.com reports: “Researchers suggest that leprosy has become endemic in the southeastern United States, with Central Florida accounting for 20 percent of cases.
The entire state of Florida accounts for 81 percent of the biblical-era disease in the United States.
The study published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed 159 new cases were reported in the U.S. in 2020, doubling the number of reported cases in the last decade based on data collected by National Hansen’s Disease Program. Approximately 70 percent of these new cases were reported in Florida, California, Louisiana, Hawaii, New York, and Texas.
Leprosy, otherwise known as Hansen’s disease, is a ‘chronic infectious disease caused by the acid-fast rod Mycobacterium leprae.’ The disease primarily targets the skin and peripheral nervous system which includes the brain and spinal cord. While it is unclear how it spreads; researchers believe ‘prolonged person-to-person contact through respiratory droplets is the most widely recognized route of transmission.’…” (Pestilences are predicted as final day signs just preceding Christ’s return to earth to set up His eternal kingdom. Matthew 24:7: …there shall be famines, and pestilences… and Revelation 6:7, 8: …when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. [Emphasis mine] See the next report.)
‘Disease X’ — UK Scientists Start Developing Vaccines for Unknown Pandemic
August 9, 2023 — Breitbart.com reports: “British scientists at the secretive Porton Down laboratory have begun developing a new group of vaccines in order to combat an unknown future pandemic, dubbed ‘Disease X’.
At the Porton Down defence technology campus in Wiltshire, England, scientists are working on new vaccines to confront a series of current animal viruses that are believed to pose a threat of transmitting to humans and spur a crisis similar to that of the Chinese coronavirus.
While they have identified several possible ‘high-risk’ pathogens, such as bird flu, hantavirus, and monkeypox, which virus could break through is currently unknown and therefore the project has the remit of combatting ‘Disease X’…”
