Now that allegations like these suddenly matter to everyone, here are detailed accounts from numerous women of Hillary Clinton threatening them and their families into silence following Bill's sexual assault/rape of them. This was buried everywhere during election season. First victim interview@20s.

Leishmaniasis is a parasitic infection that is spread by sandflies. The Spanish in South America called it "White Leprosy" because the parasite consumes your face until your nose and lips rot off. It can also cause internal damage and large open sores across your body.

TL;DR

Archaeologists went into the South American jungle to explore the ruins of the ancient city Ciudad Blanca, aka City of the Monkey God. The city may have been abandoned because the inhabitants believed it was cursed by diseases that the Spanish brought with them. The team performed an evaluation, determined the site couldn't be excavated at that time and returned home. Later, some team members discovered ulcers on their skin and were diagnosed with Leishmaniasis. They received treatment.
