Minimally invasive sampling to identify leprosy patients with a high bacterial burden in the Union of the Comoros

The World Health Organization (WHO) endorsed diagnosis of leprosy (also known as Hansen’s disease) entirely based on clinical cardinal signs, without microbiological confirmation, which may lead to late or misdiagnosis.
