Leprosy, also known as Hansenโ€™s disease, is a curable bacterial infection that mainly affects the skin and nerves. When diagnosed early, treatment can prevent long-term complications and disability.

Leprosy is not highly contagious. It is spread through prolonged, close contact with an untreated person โ€” not through casual contact like handshakes, hugs, or sharing food. Most people are naturally immune.

๐ƒ๐ข๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ค๐ง๐จ๐ฐ? Yawning is contagious โ€” and scientists are still figuring out why!

Yawning is commonly triggered by feeling tired or bored, waking up, stressful moments, or simply seeing someone else yawn (yesโ€ฆ even reading this ๐Ÿ˜„).

If youโ€™re feeling a bit yawny mid-week, youโ€™re not alone.
