From:  Maria Leide W Oliveira, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil


Dear Pieter,  

I would like to reinforce the words from Dr Maroja (LML, 20-07-2019) regarding the power abuse, which is quite common from the government Institutional leaderships, nowadays in Brazil.

The Amazon state and also the country received strong support from DAHW through FundHans and it allowed the impact observed in Hansen´s Disease activities in the state, formally the most endemic in the Country. In addition, the reference center-Alfredo da Matta - improvement (for North region, Country and Latin America) was possible due to FUNDHANS administration.  

I am sure that the history will show how devastating it will be and its legacy is already recognized.  To all ex-team, donators, health personnel and also patients reached by the Foundation my acknowledgment and eternal gratitude.  

Kind regards,

Prof. Maria Leide W. Oliveira

Federal University of Rio de Janeiro
