Talk:Fantome Island

Moved from Palm Island, Queensland
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
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)
