Léproserie de l’île Saint-Louis du MaronLéproserie de l’île Saint-Louis du Maroni, réservée aux lépreux condamnés « J’ai vu là 57 malades masculins : la lèpre tuberculeuse y prédomine. La régime alimentaire est mauvais, au dire des malades ; il est, en tout cas, insuffisant. Ils étaient aussi très mal habillés : quelques uns à moitié nus. Ces malades ne sont soumis à aucun traitement spécifique ; ils sont désoeuvrés et s’évadent quelquefois. (Souza Araujo at the Third International Leprosy Conference)[Leprosarium][French Guiana]
