Talk:Fantome Island

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Following text moved from Palm Island, because it's about Fantome:

In 1927 a hospital was built at nearby Fantome Island and many Aborigines were sent there, mainly for treatment of sexually transmitted diseases. In 1936 Fantome Island became a medical clearing station where all people sent to Palm Island were examined and treated if necessary. In 1939 a leprosarium was established. After the war the hospital was closed and by 1965 only the leprosarium remained to be administered by a Roman Catholic nursing order until 1973 when the inhabitants were moved to Palm Island.

This could be worked into this article however it is unsourced.

Dr Raphael Cilento quote[edit]

Should the 1932 quotation regarding his vision of processing the local population be removed? It doesn't seem to fit in when the history section covers it operations in more detail. - Shiftchange (talk) 15:12, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
