lpv:translated text	"I fully support this project on Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia diseases. Alzheimer’s disease is the main cause of dementia and accounts for over 44 000 sufferers in Ireland and about 10 million across Europe. Alzheimer’s is a progressive disease, which means that more and more damage occurs to the brain over time. At the same time, the symptoms of the disease become more acute. Sadly, since the European population is ageing, there is every likelihood that the number of sufferers will increase. There must be improved coordination between Member States in relation to research into the root causes of dementia diseases and in relation to best care practice. Frequently, the burden of care falls on family members. There are 50 000 people in Ireland caring daily for dementia sufferers. I would like to pay a special tribute to those carers and to the Alzheimer Society of Ireland, who provide excellent assistance to those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease."@en1
