BEWARE- Leprosy Outbreak In Gombe State



The Gombe State Office of the Leprosy and Tuberculosis Control Programme said on Wednesday that it has detected five new leprosy cases among children in the state.

Dr. Mustapha Musa, the Programme Manager, said that the new cases point to a resurgence of leprosy in the state.

Musa said the five cases were detected between January and April this year in Dukku, Yamaltu-Deba and Shongom Local Government Areas.

Please is there no treatment for Leprosy?
