why was leprosy such a big issue hundreds of years ago?

I remember watching a documentary about a Greek town where they would send people with Leprosy. Why was leprosy such a big deal if 95% of people are immune to it?

I have no idea if it’s true that 95% of people were immune, but even if it is, I’m pretty sure that no-one knew if they were in the 95%. 1/20 is actually a lot of people.
