Early warning signals could help monitor disease outbreaks

New research suggests early warning signals (EWSs) could help in the monitoring of disease outbreaks, such as COVID-19. The study found warnings could be detected weeks earlier than any rapid increase in cases. The findings could help governments and policy makers improve the accuracy of their decisions and allow timely interventions if needed. from Top Health News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/3DvxDk4 via IFTTT

Levodopa, or L-dopa, is considered the most effective treatment for Parkinson's disease today.

Deep brain stimulation can alleviate LID, but the procedure is highly invasive and not all patients are eligible.
