Mystery brain disease patients in New Brunswick say they welcome new investigation

A mysterious neurological syndrome affecting nearly 400 New Brunswick residents has prompted the new Liberal government to reopen an investigation previously closed in 2022. Patients experience symptoms including seizures, memory problems, and nerve damage, with cases concentrated in the Acadian Peninsula and Moncton areas. Health Minister John Dornan is collaborating with federal authorities to understand the cause, while affected patients advocate for environmental toxin testing.
