Vitiligo is an autoimmune disease that can be hereditary, but it is NOT contagious. If one of your parents has it, there could be a good chance that you might develop it or be a carrier for it. Here's a great link to give you some more info. on it.Can a parent with vitiligo give it to their children?
What I'm wondering.. Michael Jackson is an african american with vitiligo, he's white now. Is it because vitiligo that his kids are white too (the oldest is blond)? And the youngest is said to have a black mother. Is vitiligo on any influence in these cases? Thanks!
