Mostly it affects people in isolated communities who have limited access to healthcare and vaccinations.

The disease starts as an inflammation of the gums but spreads rapidly, destroying facial tissues and bones. If left untreated, up to 90 percent of people affected will die, usually within a short time. Those who survive are left with a severe facial disfigurement that can make it hard to eat, speak, see or breathe. Survivors often face stigma because of their disfigurement.
