Episode notes
Biblical stories are chock full of people cured of leprosy, but what about the 99.9999% of the leprosy-havers that weren’t lucky enough to come across a miracle worker? As you might have imagined if you’ve listened to our show before, things … didn’t go so well. This week on Sawbones, Dr. Sydnee and Justin walk you through the unfortunate history of leprosy.
