The answer is D: falls.

Explanation for each option: A. Burns - While individuals with Parkinson's disease may have some difficulty with motor skills, burns are not the primary concern. B. Cold, damp weather - This can exacerbate symptoms but is not the primary safety concern. C. Poisoning - This is not a common risk specifically associated with Parkinson's disease. D. Falls - People with Parkinson's disease often have issues with balance and coordination, making them more susceptible to falls, which is a significant safety concern.

Summary: The person with Parkinson's disease needs protection from falls due to their impaired balance and coordination.
