Second Canadian scientist alleges government shut down brain illness investigation

Another Canadian scientist has come forward to allege that the government halted an investigation into a mysterious brain illness in New Brunswick. Professor Samuel Weiss, in a leaked email, stated that efforts to tackle the illness were stopped by the government. He believes that the illness may have affected around 350 people, a higher number than what the government has acknowledged. This is the second federal scientist to accuse the government of deliberately shutting down the investigation into the brain illness.
