As you may know, on the island of Knights and Knaves, knights always tell the
truth and knaves always lie.
Each inhabitant is either a knight or a knave. There is however an epidemic
that makes them sick. A diseased knight always gives false statements, and a
diseased knave always tells the truth.
There no way of knowing if someone is a knight or knave or sick apart from
logical deduction.
Two inhabitants make the following statements:
Jaf: Anipa is a knight.
Anipa: Jaf is a knave.
Jaf: Anipa is sick.
Anipa: Jaf is healthy.
Which of the four types are Anipa and Jaf.

to know the answer (I guess that's an empty set).
If Jaf tells the truth he says that anipa is a sick knight.
If Jaf tells lies, anipa is a healthy knave. Both results are liars, so we
know that Anipa is a liar.
Anipa lies, so his statements are opposite, which means that Jaf is a sick
knight.
Since we now know that Jaf lies as well, it means Anipa is a healthy knave.
