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.

Did he talk to an oncologist already? HPV is dangerous to have. Considering that he also has skin warts that begun from a simple break in the skin. Los Angeles Radiation Oncologist
