Dear Salvatore,

 

Colleagues and I are attempting to develop a standard protocol to test the ability of peripheral government health workers to diagnose and treat reactions and neuritis.  I would be very grateful if any readers can assist us by contributing good quality photographs that show clear signs of type 1 and/or type 2 reaction.  We will be particularly grateful for photographs of African people presenting with reaction.

Permission to publish the photographs will also be appreciated.  I will be very grateful if photographs can be sent to hacross@pldtdsl.net

 

Regards,

Hugh Cross
