Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Present Status of the Leprosy Problem in Hawaii; The Reaction of Lepers to Moro's "Percutaneous" Test; A Note Upon the Possibility of the Mosquito Acting in the Transmission of Lepsory Leprosy has had an important influence on public health and social conditions in the Hawaiian Islands for many years, and notwithstanding the fact that isolation of the disease has been practiced for more than four decades, it continues to be a serious problem and a tax upon the resources of those islands. The disease has also been shown to be widely disseminated throughout the United States. A commission of medical officers of the United States Public Health and Marine-Hospital Service, appointed in accordance with the act of Congress approved March 2, 1899, investigated the prevalence of the disease and rendered a report, which shows that there were at least 278 well-authenticated cases at that time existing in 21 separate States and Territories. The cause of the disease is now known and recognized as being a specific organism - the Bacillus lepr discovered by Hansen - but little is known of the method of its transmission or of the channels through which it effects an entrance into the human economy. With the acquisition of Hawaii by the United States, leprosy became more than ever a national problem, and it was recognized that the disease should receive serious study with the view to eliciting further information as to the methods of its dissemination and with the hope that a cure would eventually be evolved. Representations were therefore made to Congress urging the establishment of a leper investigation station on the island of Molokai, in order that advantage might be taken of the excellent opportunities afforded by the leper settlement tor scientific study of the disease. As a result, Congress passed an act, which was approved March 3, 1905, providing for the investigation of leprosy in Hawaii. In accordance with the provisions of this act, a suitable tract of land was ceded by the Territory of Hawaii to the United States, and steps were taken to establish thereon a hospital station and laboratory of the Public Health and Marine-Hospital Service. The construction of the necessary buildings is nearing completion, and in the meantime Dr. Walter P. Brinckerhoff, who was appointed director of the station, has been engaged in scientific studies of the disease. While investigations of this character present problems of unusual difficulty, they are sure to advance our knowledge of the disease and to result in improved treatment and possible cure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ma‘i Lepera attempts to recover Hawaiian voices at a significant moment in Hawai‘i’s history. It takes an unprecedented look at the Hansen’s disease outbreak (1865–1900) almost exclusively from the perspective of “patients,” ninety percent of whom were Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian). Using traditional and nontraditional sources, published and unpublished, it tells the story of a disease, a society’s reaction to it, and the consequences of the experience for Hawai‘i and its people. Over a span of thirty-four years more than five thousand people were sent to a leprosy settlement on the remote peninsula in north Moloka‘i traditionally known as Makanalua. Their story has seldom been told despite the hundreds of letters they wrote to families, friends, and the Board of Health, as well as to Hawaiian-language newspapers, detailing their concerns at the settlement as they struggled to retain their humanity in the face of ma‘i lepera. Many remained politically active and, at times, defiant, resisting authority and challenging policies. As much as they suffered, the Kānaka Maoli of Makanalua established new bonds and cared for one another in ways that have been largely overlooked in popular histories describing leprosy in Hawai‘i. Although Ma‘i Lepera is primarily a social history of disease and medicine, it offers compelling evidence of how leprosy and its treatment altered Hawaiian perceptions and identities. It changed how Kānaka Maoli viewed themselves: By the end of the nineteenth century, the “diseased” had become a cultural “other” to the healthy Hawaiian. Moreover, it reinforced colonial ideology and furthered the use of both biomedical practices and disease as tools of colonization. Ma‘i Lepera will be of significant interest to students and scholars of Hawai‘i and medical history and historical and medical anthropology. Given its accessible style, this book will also appeal to general readers who wish to know more about the Kānaka Maoli who contracted leprosy—their connectedness to each other, their families, their islands, and their nation—and how leprosy came to affect those connections and their lives.
