This is some interesting news. A study has found that people recently vaccinated against tetanus are less likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (PD) later in life. This suggests that an infection with tetanus bacteria could be one of the possible triggers involved in the condition. Additional work is planned to understand this situation further.
