| 1937 | JesushilfeIn 1937, leprosy was surveyed epidemiologically among the Jews of Galilee. This was under the auspices of the dermatology department of the Hadassah Organization in Jerusalem. "The field survey" was entrusted to the dermatologist Dr. Reuven Yeshurun, who worked mostly in secrecy in order to avoid sowing panic.The survey continued from mid February until mid June 1937 and was performed by all possible means: in the small settlements most residents were examined; in the towns, Tiberias and Safed only, the relatives of patients as well as "suspects" which Dr. Yeshurun "caught" by observation in the street.The survey discovered 11 patients, 9 of them in Tiberias.
