There was a House episode where a couple of divers were exploring an 1800's shipwreck, and came across an old jar, still sealed. They didn't know what was in it, then brought it onto their boat. They dropped it, it broke, and a flap of skin with sores on it landed on the person. Turns out the ship was an old slave ship, and there was a case of smallpox on board. The doctor took skin from someone with the disease to make a vaccine from, then the ship sank. The person got smallpox, and the doctors had a hard time treating it.
never seen this show. I assume it is a comedy show?
