RESUMO
In reviewing the progress of leprosy at Nauru in the last five years one is impressed with the facts that: 1- The disease is slowly decreasing in incidence. 2- Early diagnosis has been of paramount importance and has been afforded by frequent medical inspections of the body surface of every native. 3- The division of the cases into infectious and uninfectious and the different treatment of these groups has given better results than would have resulted with compulsory segregation of every case of leprosy. 4- The most useful drug has proved to be ethyl esters of Hydnocarpus wightiana oil. 5- The administration is endeavoring to bring the resistance of each individual to its maximum by attacking all other diseases.
