Historically, people with leprosy were often isolated and sent away to leper colonies due to fear and misunderstanding of the disease. However, modern medicine has shown that leprosy is not highly contagious and can be effectively treated with antibiotics. Today, individuals with leprosy are not typically ostracized or sent away; instead, they receive medical care and support to help manage the condition. Many countries have moved towards inclusion and integration of affected individuals into society.
