Yeah, the US had the disease pretty bad when it was young. And, it’s laid dormant in the nervous system for years. Some stress and poor health habits have allowed it to rise to the surface.
It won’t ever go away entirely but better habits and self-care can keep it away indefinitely.
He’s shingles.

Caveat: you can’t blame people who get shingles for being sick.
Stress is often a trigger for instance, that’s usually caused by other people.
That’s it, with the caveat that people usually don’t die of shingles.
Not usually. But, untreated shingles can lead to complications that can kill you (infections, stroke, meningitis, encephalitis, etc.).
Yeah that’s what we got, post-civil war shingles.
