| 1932 | This year’s medical report states that “The demands for leprosy relief are becoming so great that it is impossible to satisfy them from the sum of money which is set aside for this purpose in the Protectorate estimates.” It is further stated that in 1931 a leprosy survey “revealed the great extent of the disease in various districts of the Protectorate.” Further, either enormously increased provision from Protectorate revenue or an organisation for the relief of leprosy, must be developed upon lines which differ from those of the past; for it is impossible to provide a larger grant than in the past. The Government annual grants for leprosy work at this period averaged approximately £3,000 (Anti-Leprosy Measures in the Uganda Protectorate, 1824-51) in “Leprosy Incidence and Control in East Africa, 1924-1952 and the Outlook” by Leonard Rogers, Leprosy Review 25.1 (1954): 41-59 [Organisation, People, Epidemiology] [Africa, Uganda] |
