". I voted in favour of this important document. A new case of neurodegenerative disease (nervous system disorders) is diagnosed every 24 hours. At present, this disease represents one of the main causes of incapacity among the elderly, and Alzheimer’s disease accounts for more than half of all cases. The number of people affected is expected to rise significantly. This causes concern, bearing in mind the increase in average life expectancy and the declining ratio between the number of people working and the number of people who are retired. I support the European Commission’s proposal to establish a European strategy, a solidarity-based response geared to prevention and the treatment of people living with dementias (gradual deterioration in mental abilities), as well as the people around them. A European strategy should also seek to safeguard the existence of services that guarantee maximum possible coverage and equal conditions as regards access and treatment for patients, regardless of their age, gender, financial resources or place of residence."@en1
