"Mr President, I agree with the specific action proposed in the initiative on Alzheimer’s disease, that it is essential to promote early diagnosis and quality of life, to support cooperation between the Member States through sharing best practices and clinical studies, and to respect the rights of people living with this difficult disease. As the European Union does not currently have at its disposal sufficiently precise statistics concerning Alzheimer’s disease, studies should be carried out on the basis of common, strictly defined indicators. Furthermore, it is necessary to invest in scientific research and efficient approaches to care systems. Particular attention must be paid to healthcare professionals, providers, and training and support for families coping with Alzheimer’s disease on a daily basis. I would like to stress that in combating this difficult disease, it is vital to pay much attention to prevention and to target efforts at obtaining the earliest possible diagnosis. Therefore, there is a need to draw up a preventive strategy on Alzheimer’s disease, linked to encouraging healthier lifestyles, informing people about this disease and exchanging medical practices."@en1
