Corvus+Leprology

1.  2. Leprology 3. Henry Tran 4. The purpose of Leprology is for the study and research of more effective cures and better ways to treat it. It is also to spread it to parts of the world where the treatment is not available. The intended audience of this is people who possibly have leprosy and are in search of a cure or people studying leprosy. The historical impact of this is that people in parts of the world, such as Chile, have never seen this and do not have a cure. Because they are so isolated from the world of medicine, most cases of this end up leaving permanent scars and other defects, such as blindness. The modern cultural impact of this is that it is not prominent in culture today because there is a cure to it if caught early on. But in undeveloped areas where the cure is not accessible, it is still incubating in the bodies of many. 5. "Leprosy." World Health Organization. WHO, May 2015. Web. 29 Feb. 2016. "Leprosy."
