Abstract

The increase in new leprosy cases in the year 2021 spread across 19 regencies, with the highest distribution in Padang Pariaman, and it is still a problem in West Sumatera Province. Based on this condition, "the pockets of leprosy" has been created, which play a role in the transmission of leprosy, so the elimination effort experiences difficult. Public Health Center of Pauh Kamba in Padang Pariaman Regency has 12 (19%) new multibacillary cases. In commemoration of World Leprosy Day in the year 2022, Indonesian Society of Dermatology And Venereology (INSDV/Perdoski), Indonesian Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Association (Perdosri), and Padang Pariaman District Health Office have been struggling to break the chain of transmission of leprosy by increasing understanding of leprosy, self-care of leprosy, prevention of disability, and revitalize the activities of self-care groups by local health workers.
