A recent study has revealed that Ireland holds one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis (MS) globally, ranking fourth overall. This neurological disease affects approximately two to three million people worldwide, with significantly higher prevalence rates observed in Western Europe and North America compared to regions like Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The study notes that areas with less sunlight, particularly those situated in northern latitudes, tend to have higher rates of MS, linking environmental factors to the disease's occurrence.
