A Correct answer
Explanation

Leprosy is also known as Hansen's disease, named after Gerhard Armauer Hansen who discovered the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae in 1873. The term 'Henson's disease' appears to be a misspelling of Hansen's. Lyme disease is tick-borne, Still's disease is juvenile arthritis, and Slim disease refers to AIDS.
