요약 |
Leprosy was first described in Korean classical literature, with rather definite identity,
at the end of the 13th century.
During the early days of the 20th century, American medical missionaries founded
three leprosaria in the southern parte of Korea. In 1917, the National Leprosarium in
Sorok-do island was begun.
In 1932, the Chosun Leprosy Prevention Association was founded, with whose
assistance the Sorok-do Leprosarium was gradually expanded.
In 1946, after the War, many leprosy patients appeared on the streets from hiding, due
to loose administrative control.
In 1947, a survey of wandering patients revealed 4,387 cases; 94% of them had the
physical capability of engaging in productive labor work.
In 1947, the Korean Leprosy Association was founded. And the Hope Village
Movement was started. The latter was based upon the policy of securing care and relief
for the village on a self-support basis.
In 1946, promin was first introduced to Korea, and from 1953, a nation-wide coverage
with D.D.S. and its derivatives to known cases was started.
In 1955, a leprosy out-patient clinic, and in 1957, a leprosy mobile clinic were started.
In 1961, the leprosy control 5-year plan was started.
In 1963, the over-all compulsory segregation law abolished. |
