title: The infectivity of drug resistant cases.
abstract: The present study shows that leprosy bacilli resistant to dapsone, multiply in mouse foot-pad as equally as the dapsone sensitive bacilli would multiply suggesting that the dapsone resistant case will be as infective as the dapsone sensitive case.
