Headline Cameroon and Chad: "Against leprosy in Africa" by Pierre A. Pittet, 1954 
Description Against leprosy in Africa - Leprosy is widely prevalent in the countries of West Africa. The Endemic Diseases Service directed by Dr Richet, with headquarters in Bobo-Dioulasso, operates mobile teams that, each in its own area, pursue the triple aim of case-finding, treatment and health education. Technical and material assistance has been made available by WHO and UNICEF. The service has now made a name for itself in all the countries previously belonging to French West and Equatorial Africa, and is now spreading in English-speaking countries also.

Every morning, the leprosy sufferers of the N'den settlement in the Southern Cameroon come to the dispensary to have their bandages changed. Apart from the sulfone treatment, open lesions have to be cleaned and cared for regularly. A male nurse douses the patients' bandages to make them go off more easily and without unnecessary suffering to the patients.
