Descrição: [...]Father Damien, the Belgian missionary priest in Hawaii, contracted leprosy and died in 1889, proving its contagiousness. Starting in 1997, the government conducted several modified leprosy elimination campaigns; these short, concentrated bursts of statewide case detection activities included orientation of all village-level workers and volunteers on leprosy, house-to-house searches in specified areas, and awareness programs using mass media, school activities, and community meetings.
