    About this ebook

    This book is about the stigma of leprosy in Hawaii and how sick Hawaiian people were arrested and imprisoned for life because of their disease. It is a book about the fear of the unknown, pandemic, fear of sick people who cannot be cured quickly, or at all. It could happen again, mandatory isolation imposed as a Public Health policy for diseases not readily cured.
