Ref.: (LML) Request for Leprosy Training
From: Joel Almeida, Mumbai, India
Dear Pieter & colleagues,
Schieffelin Institute, Karigiri (India) has long offered good courses on HD. These courses tended to attract participants from around the globe. Good idea for such institutes of excellence to be sponsored for providing hands-on training to health personnel.
With good training of health personnel there will be less risk that highly bacillated patients before or after MDT, often showing only subtle physical signs, will be overlooked. Then we can match the achievements of the best control programmes (including Karigiri) that demonstrated well documented and large reductions in the incidence rate of multibacillary HD.
Best wishes to the younger professionals joining the (winnable) battle to defeat the germs and improve respect/services for those affected. And to all other esteemed colleagues and friends too.
Joel Almeida
