From Skizit's video, a mention of the signature or marker,
from Krofting?
This has been brought up a number of times, this particular "chancre"
============================
What is it?
=============
Chancroid (also known as Soft chancre[1]:274 and "Ulcus molle"[2]) is a sexually transmitted infection characterized by painful sores on the genitalia. Chancroid is known to be spread from one to another individual through sexual contact.
Causes
Chancroid is a bacterial infection caused by the fastidious Gram-negative streptobacillus Haemophilus ducreyi. It is a disease found primarily in developing countries, most prevalent in low socioeconomic groups, associated with commercial sex workers.
Infection levels are low in the Western world, typically around one case per two million of the population (Canada, France, Australia, UK and US) Most individuals diagnosed with chancroid have visited countries or areas where the disease is known to occur frequently, although outbreaks have been observed in association with crack cocaine use and prostitution.
Chancroid is a risk factor for contracting HIV, due to their ecological association or shared risk of exposure, and biologically facilitated transmission of one infection by the other.
After an incubation period of one day to two weeks, chancroid begins with a small bump that becomes an ulcer within a day of its appearance. The ulcer characteristically:
* Ranges in size dramatically from 3 to 50 mm (1/8 inch to two inches) across
* Is painful
* Has sharply defined, undermined borders
* Has irregular or ragged borders
* Has a base that is covered with a gray or yellowish-gray material
* Has a base that bleeds easily if traumatized or scraped
In more specific terms, the CDC's standard clinical definition for a probable case of chancroid includes all of the following:
* Patient has one or more painful genital ulcers. The combination of a painful ulcer with tender adenopathy is suggestive of chancroid; the presence of suppurative adenopathy is almost pathognomonic.
* No evidence of Treponema pallidum is indicated by dark-field examination of ulcer or by a serologic test for Syphilis performed at least 7 days after the onset of ulcer.
* The clinical presentation is not typical of disease caused by human herpesvirus 2 (Herpes Simplex Virus), or result of culture for HSV is negative.
About half of infected men have only a single ulcer. Women frequently have four or more ulcers, with fewer symptoms. The ulcers appear in specific locations, such as the coronal sulcus of the uncircumcised glans penis in men, or the fourchette and labia minora in women.

==========================
doesn't this sound like the same "chit" we were given over AIDS? at the
beginning? mmmmmm
so is Morgellons just a continuation of that with added bonuses?
====================
can occur in the pharynx as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
============================
"There are many differences and similarities between the conditions syphilitic chancre and chancroid (reference 1 and 2)
Similarities
* Both originate as pustules at the site of inoculation, and progress to ulcerated lesions
* Both lesions are typically 1–2 cm in diameter
* Both lesions are caused by sexually transmissible organisms
* Both lesions typically appear on the genitals of infected individuals
* Both lesions can present at multiple sites and with multiple lesions
Differences
* Chancre is a lesion typical of infection with the bacterium that causes syphilis, Treponema pallidum
* Chancroid is a lesion typical of infection with the bacterium Haemophilus ducreyi
* Chancres are typically painless, whereas chancroid are typically painful
* Chancres are typically non-exudative, whereas chancroid typically have a grey or yellow purulent exudate
* Chancres have a hard (indurated) edge, whereas chancroid have a soft edge
* Chancres heal spontaneously within three to six weeks, even in the absence of treatment
* Chancres can occur in the pharynx as well as on the genitals
