What an excellent piece of news.  We all have to die, but to die the way MND patients die is probably as bad as that of covid 19 sufferers.

MND means a slow death, it's dreadful, patients become gradually more helpless and choke so easily.
This could be an amazing breakthrough, giving hope where there is none at the moment.
