Out of twenty five leprosy samples, three were reactive for Rheumatoid Arthritis factor and seven were positive for antibodies to syphilis as revealed by the test. Further two were reactive for C-reactive protein and one were having titre of Anti-Streptolysin-O. Screening for HIV, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Anti-Streptolysin-O, C-reactive protein and Syphilis (VDRL) were done in order to know the prevalence levels of these infections, as biological markers of risk. Thus, screening the leprosy patients for these would go a long way in early detection of these co-infections. Early treatment, if initiated, would help in further deterioration of the condition of these patients.
