Investigators have so far ruled out Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and other prion diseases.
Fifty-one per cent of the cases have involved women and 49 per cent men.
Most of the cases have been located in the northeast and southeast of the province.
Families of affected patients say they’re happy to have the website, but say they want the government to name the exact communities where each case is located.
