Dear Salvatore,Just I had been thinking, in absence of the “International Journal of Leprosy”, why not “Hansenologia internationalis”, published in Brazil fills up the vacuum?
Since Dr. M. Virmond is now the president of ILA, the journal can have editorial home at Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima, in Bauru in Brazil. Only thing is that the journal has to be published in both English and Portuguese, have in the abstracts in either of the two languages, as a vice versa manner. The journal has high standing in South America. It is worth considering.

Greetings,
Pranab
