Dear Pieter,

 

 

Thank you for the important eye-opener in Dr. Ben Naafs' case report LML July 9, 2014I think that the knowledge and skills for skin smear microscopy might be disappearing even faster than other leprosy related skills.

 

Do you know if there are facilities where existing staff (especially of National reference Laboratories) could be trained in appropriate skin smear techniques?
