Colin Jost posted an alarming update on the injuries and illnesses he sustained during his harrowing -- and hilarious -- coverage in Tahiti as an Olympics Surfing correspondent, and NBC has labeled him a scourge!

NBC, according to Colin, has diagnosed him with leprosy ... true, the network brass aren't doctors, but it's a fair assessment after the 'SNL' star had to leave the games because he was doing himself in with gashes, bites and infections.
