Leprosy is still a problem in 2024.
Leprosy continues to be a challenge in most developing countries, contributing significantly to the physical and social disability of people afflicted. It remains a serious social and medical problem in the Pacific and New Zealand and it is here that the Pacific Leprosy Foundation works to eliminate and mitigate the effects of this disease.
