Blood test for Alzheimer's could be available in a few years...

[NYT Health @NYTHealth]

A blood test for Alzheimer's is closer to reality than ever,  promising news in a field that's faced one failure after another. "Amazing isn't it?" one expert says. "I mean, really, five years ago, I would have told you it was science fiction." https://t.co/PqhYR1ABVj
