MS: World Distribution of Multiple Sclerosis



Above is a map of the world and it highlights the places were the most people are affected with out are at high risk of Multiple Sclerosis.

It is interesting that in the following there is hardly any risk at all of getting MS:

  • Chile
  • Argentina
  • Madagascar
  • Norway
  • Parts of China
  • Parts of Canada
  • Greenisland
  • Papua New Guinea
  • Islands above Russia
  • Parts of Malaysia 
And a high risk in:
  • United States of America
  • United Kingdom
  • Ireland
  • Germany
  • Poland 
  • New Zealand
Wonder why some of those countries are high risk and the others are low risk. For me its a very interesting map.
