L’arrière petite fille du lépreux

            Varanasi (Inde) - L’arrière grand-père de cette petite fille est hors champ. Il a retiré sa prothèse et posé sa canne pour se faire désinfecter la jambe par l'équipe soignante de l’ONG Action Bénarès. Elle le regarde attentivement, mais n'est pas impressionnée car elle l'a toujours connu amputé. Le handicap de son aïeul fait partie de son quotidien.
Pour mémoire, je rappelle que les malades de cette léproserie, tous âgés de plus de 60 ans, ont été vaccinés depuis les années 1970 par les médecins d'Action Bénarès. Ils ne sont plus contagieux et peuvent vivre avec leurs familles sans risque. Il n'en demeure pas moins que les personnes qui ont été infectées par le virus de la lèpre, nécessitent de soins réguliers et à vie.

Varanasi (India) - This little girl's great-grandfather is out of frame. He has removed his prosthesis and put down his cane to have his leg disinfected by the medical team of the NGO Action Benares. She looks at him attentively, but is not impressed because she always knew him as an amputee. Her grandfather's disability is part of his daily life.
For the record, I remind you that the patients in this leprosarium, all over the age of 60, have been vaccinated since the 1970s by doctors from Action Bénarès. They are no longer contagious and can live with their families without risk. The fact remains that people who have been infected by the leprosy virus require regular and lifelong care.
