Pellagra is not an infectious disease. Pellagra is a nutritional deficiency disease.
Untreated pellagra will continue progressing over the course of several years, and is ultimately fatal.
Primary pellagra results when the diet is extremely deficient in niacin-rich foods.

The 4 D's of pellagra are dermatitis (skin rash), diarrhea, dementia (mental confusion), and ultimately death if left untreated. Pellagra is caused by a deficiency of niacin (vitamin B3) in the diet.
The physician Dr. Gaspar Casal first described pellagra in the 18th century. However, the definitive link between diet and pellagra was made by Dr. Joseph Goldberger in the early 20th century.
