Leprosy
(Hansen's disease) What is leprosy? Leprosy is a chronic bacterial disease of the skin and nerves in the hands and feet and, in some cases, the lining of the nose. Leprosy is a rare disease in the United States. Who gets leprosy? Anyone can get leprosy, but children seem to be more susceptible than adults. How is leprosy spread? It is not clear how the leprosy germ is spread, but household and prolonged close contact is important. The germs probably enter the body through the nose and possibly through broken skin. The germs get in the air through nasal discharge of untreated lepromatous patients. What are the symptoms of leprosy? Tuberculoid leprosy symptoms are a few well-defined skin lesions that are numb. Lepromatous leprosy symptoms are a chronically stuffy nose and many skin lesions and nodules on both sides of the body. How soon after exposure do symptoms appear? It usually takes about four years for tuberculoid leprosy symptoms to appear and about eight years for lepromatous leprosy symptoms to appear. When and for how long is a person able to spread leprosy?

The 'core' of our work, the thing on which we stay focused, is the care of those affected with leprosy. It is true that the number of new cases is declining and that about the most wonderful news we can tell anyone but...
The already deformed and those too old to go begging still need our help. One of the simple things we do is to give at Christmas - a 'Bundle of Love' containing a set of clothing, winter blanket, toiletries and protective footwear to prevent ulcers. Give Pounds 10 or Euro 16 and we will put your name on the gift if you wish.

The Project
The Global Project on the History of Leprosy is the initiative of the International Leprosy Association (utilizing the Nippon Foundation fund through WHO ) and the Wellcome Unit for the History of Medicine at the University of Oxford . The Project is developing a database of leprosy archives around the world, as a working tool for researchers who are interested in the modern history of leprosy, dating from 1847, when Danielssen and Boeck published Om Spedalskhed . It will also be of interest to those connected with leprosy and its impact.
The collections mentioned on the database have a wide range of organisational, policy, scientific and medical archives as well as leprosaria records, museums and libraries. Also included are private collections of those who have worked in the field and collections of testimonies from people affected by the disease. The project does not hold any of these records, but provides information of their existence and whereabouts. While the database creates pathways for researchers, the project will both encourage the preservation of archives and establish a network of researchers.

Friends Of The Children Of Orissa
Home About us Newsletters School Children ... Charity Donations Save a girl in India from a life of misery Every penny goes to the 300 children in Orissa! We are one of a few India charity organisations providing UK charity donations to support not several residential schools, but a single boarding school in Bhubaneswar, India. Every penny of charity donations goes to cover the cost of the childrens' residential education (keep and education). None of your money will be spent on fundraising, administration, travel or the other expenses associated with the more familiar charity appeals. Neither does it go towards other India based Charity organisations. It all goes to providing our pupils with good boarding school education and the best school life the charity donations can provide for our pupils.
Who are we ? What do we do ?
We are a small education charity set up in 1992 to assist Palli Unnayan Seva Samiti in Orissa, still our main partner. Our main purpose is to raise charity donations for the up-keep and provision of one of the best international charity funded, residential schools in India as without an official India school education more than 300 children from sexworker and leprosy colonies in Orissa would grow up to become uneducated, impoverished women. We do this mainly through 'word of mouth' publicity, circulars to regular and potential supporters information, stalls at local events, and applications to funding agencies. Our supporters include friends from Cranfield School of Management, from Filgrave near Milton Keynes, from Bozeat in Northamptonshire, and from many other places in the UK and abroad.

Leprosy Throughout the Ages
by Eleanor E. Storrs Until the coming of AIDS, leprosy was the most feared of infectious diseases. Even today, it warps the lives of millions of people; mostly in South America, Africa, and the Orient. The Black Death that swept though Europe in the last half of the 14th century, killing one third of the people, was more violent in its ravages. But it came and went quickly, like a great earthquake, followed by a series of after shocks. Leprosy has tormented humans since the dawn of history; leaving lasting imprints on religion, literature, and art. It is a deep rooted part of the human psyche, with both mystical and physical meanings. Asians and Africans call it "the big disease" in many tongues because of the damage done to soul and body of those cursed with it. We know nothing certain about the origins of leprosy, except that it is old, very old. An account of a disease that could be leprosy appears in an Egyptian papyrus inscribed about 1552-1350 B.C. But this is an imaginative guess, made by modern scholars, that could be wrong. Indian writings dated at 600 B.C, describe a disease that most experts agree was leprosy. It does not appear in the records of ancient Greece until the army of Alexander the Great came back from India in 326 B.C. In Rome, the first mention coincides with the return of Pompey's troops from Asia Minor in 62 B.C. Thus Asia could be the cradle of infection.

LEPROSY IN INDIA
Vol. 51 No. 1, January 1979
EXAMINATION OF NORTH AMERICAN ARMADILLOS FOR MYCOBACTERIOSIS- A FURTHER REPORT
by W.F. Kirchheimer

The question of "Leprosy in Wild Armadillos" was the subject of an editorial by Dharmendra in LEPROSY IN INDIA in April 1978. He stated that "where leprosy-like disease is found in wild armadillos, the possible source or sources of the infection should be carefully investigated." Carville's search for "natural" leprosy was initiated when Dr. Sohan L. Issar informed Carville staff in November 1973 that he had discovered a generalized mycobacteriosis in an experimentally uninfected armadillo housed at Gulf South Research Institute (GSRI) for 2 years. His detailed communication and speculation about possible origins of the infection were printed in LEPROSY SCIENTIFIC MEMORANDA, February 1976, Memo L 778. In the issue of LEPROSY IN INDIA which carried Dharmendra's editorial Kirchheimer and Sanchez published their results of search for leprosy-like mycobacterioses from 1 January 1974 to 31 December 1977. These findings are summarized in Table 1. No leprosy-like disease was found in any of 373 armadillos. Two hundred eighty-two of these were caught in Louisiana, 78 in Florida and 13 in Texas. Since then additional information has become available and it is the purpose to present Carville's later findings and discuss their implications. Table II shows that between January 1974 and 30 June 1978, 396 individual wild-caught armadillos were examined. Three hundred six armadillos were from Louisiana and the rest from Florida and Texas. No leprosy-like mycobacteriosis was found in 395 armadillos (99.75%).
