Gonorrhoea and Syphiltis
are the most dangerous and
long-lived of all diseases..
Syphilis was named ‘by Sir
William Osler as “Captain of
the Men of Death” and may be
faialif itis nol treated. Death
may come from such a variety
of cause.thal the disease has
also been called “The Great
Imitator” because it hils every
section of. the. human body.
Apparently an innocent-looking
rash may be ‘syphillis.
