520 3 _aBecause their patients are doomed to seclusion and rejection, such diseases as tuberculosis, leprosy, plague, madness and AIDS could be experienced as exile or exclusion of some sorts. As for leprosy, it has been associated in quite a few civilisations with the idea of a curse. It is presented as a disease of mythical or even mystical origin. Therefore lepers remain exiles within the realm of their illness; excluded with no other society than their own; experiencing in their environment but contempt and suspicion.
