Just a Coincidence-  The U.N. utters "the word": Dementia

Surely only a coincidence, right?
For the first time, a United Nations declaration is pledging to address dementia. There was, however, no suggestion that this was triggered by any recent events at the UN.

On Thursday, world leaders at the U.N. General Assembly in New York are laying out a new plan for combatting mental health challenges and non-communicable diseases. While their political declaration emphasizes conditions like cardiovascular disease and diabetes, it also mentions neurological conditions like dementia.
