Warts Anyone?...or more correctly Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)

And you thought you had problems. Check this article Telegraph.co.uk online newspaper website. They claim to be Britain's No.1 quality newspaper website. It is an article about an Indonesian fisherman who grew "roots" on his hands and feet. I KID YOU NOT! If you like weird stuff, you have to take a look. Thankfully, Dr Anthony Gaspari of the University of Maryland Medical Center went to visit the man and hopefully work on a cure.

Sadly, a follow up article talks about the war between the Dr. Gaspari and the government of Indonesia over this man's virus strain/cure. Apparently his affliction is caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), a fairly common infection that usually causes small warts to develop on sufferers. Do you have any warts? Take care now!!! Bye, Bye.
