“Do we, or do we not, consent to millions of people being banished from
society because they are [were] ill. ... ? No one today
should be condemned to leprosy in perpetuity.”
Raoul Follereau
(1966)
“I have been
affected by leprosy since I was 24 years old. Since then I have been in
Ossiomo [Settlement] waiting for manna to fall from heaven.”
Nwoko
Uche, age 30, Nigeria (2003)
