Leprosy Study Leader Returns From South Africa
Dr Victor G Heiser has returned to New York after six months in South Africa studying leprosy to fuel a world wide campaign against the disease. In the district he visited eighty thousand natives suffer leprosy and the disease is severe in other parts of the world. The United States faces a constant importation risk from leper regions though few lepers exist here. Immigrant populations from leper countries concentrate risk on both coasts. The main concern is to prevent any foothold of leprosy in America, making Heisers research vital and worthy of public support.
