Nice. It is a black mark upon humanity that it even still exists at all since it can be treated with antibiotics.

I've been reading Peter Thiel's Zero to One book, and read about his Christianity along with his opposition to charity, which seems like a paradox. I'm curious if he would have objected to funding leprosy elimination, as it's so central to Jesus's story.
