Original Note:
Misleading post. A very small number of people who had latent leprosy developed some symptoms after covid vaccination. All of these people were infected with leprosy prior to vaccination. The vaccine does not contain the bacteria that causes leprosy Mycobacterium leprae https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-florida-leprosy-cases-cdc-covid-vaccines-352032756100 https://journals.plos.org/plosntds/article?id=10.1371/journal.pntd.0011493
