Skin infection - Warts, HPV virus fights back

This is crazy stuff. Found this on CNN of all places.

Watch for disturbing images on front page.

In a nutshell, this guy (Dede Kosawa - Dubbed the Treeman ) gets a cut on his skin as a teenager, gets this virus, and has massive bark-like warts on his feet. He has already had 12 lbs of the warts removed, and his own body can't fight back due to a genetic immunity defect. Looks like mother nature is finding new ways of getting rid of all these damn humans on the planet.

WOW
