Huntington's disease in Tanzania

Journal of Medical Genetics, Volume 18, No. 3, Year 1981

Huntington's disease was studied in a Bantu community in northern Tanzania. Although there is evidence to suggest that the disease has been present here for over one hundred years, this is the first report of the condition in Tanzania. A survey of published reports indicates that the disease is infrequently reported in persons of Negro ancestry.
