Not claiming it as an absolute, but SFAIK all known cases of leprosy from armadillos have occurred in Louisiana, and those have always been rare. Basically, it seems to be "possible, but highly unlikely"--absent absolute carelessness, such as handling one when you have an open sore on a finger or hand.
