It's more than just a meme

If you or any goat you know suffers from falling goat syndrome, please be there for them.

Catch them when they fall.

Medicine & Finnish dudes

  • Traced most specifically to persons of Finnish Heritage
  • 24 northern Finnish families were found with a mutated CLCN1 gene that was genetically dominant
  • 1 in 10,000 native Finns (found in 1 out of 1,000,000 people internationally)
  • In humans, they use quinine, or anticonvulsant drugs such as phenytoin

Two Types!!!

CLCN1

  • Autosomal dominant
  • Present genetically from birth
  • Mutated gene is a dominant trait

Not Just A Meme
