I just did a short search on this mycobacterium. There is quite a bit on it.
It causes infections in wounds from surgery and has been found in quackery
treatments for cosmetic purposes. It is not that rare, really. Only underreported by doctors.

I have edited my post accordingly.

Using that inaccurate term could cause a stampede these days, as well as
other noxious social reactions.
