Default I don't know about anyone else

But I am quite sure that this is exactly what happened with me. I believe Parkinson's needs multiple insults to develop, and that tnf-a inflammation from flu like illness and/or drug exposure "prime" the CNS so that the second or third insult results in an inflammatory response that provokes a cell cascade.

I hope this piece gets a lot of exposure, so that researchers understand the process.

I know without any doubt that the article outlines precisely the disease development that occurs in at least some (idiopathic) PWP.
