Basically, they used all sorts of crazy stuff. Aside from the folk remedies of mercury, arsenic, and other stuff that kills you faster, they usually told the sufferers to move to Arizona, where the air was dryer. These days, it's treated with antibiotics, although thanks to retards not taking them for long enough, there are multiple drug-resistant strains that can't be cured. In that case, they try to improve your immune system, keep you hydrated, and hope for the best. Mike
