Many don’t realize the scourge of leprosy still exists in parts of our world. For victims, it’s an insidious disease that ravages the body and tortures the soul.
Victims are not only devastated by the onslaught of the illness. They also suffer the emotional and physical toll of rejection from any and all part of society. Leprosy is generally found among highly impoverished communities where victims lack access to proper sanitation and healthcare. Because they’re relentlessly chased away from contact with anyone, they can’t get the help they desperately need.
People affected by leprosy become homeless, destitute, and eventually starve. Without treatment, their disease progresses until they grow too weak or disabled to help themselves. They slowly die from exposure, starvation, illness, or attacks by wild animals.
AAA continued to offer leprosy services in order to alleviate their suffering though medication and welfare services.
