Note #16. Incurable diseases. Did you hear that the third person has already been cured of HIV? Although doctors don’t say it won’t return, they confirm that HIV isn't be found in the patients’ bodies. Also there is a couple of babies in China who are immune to AIDS due to a chinese biologist who has modified their genes. Despite all doubts linked with the rumors before, I believe that these particular cases is a great step for humanity in general. What disease will be next to be defeated? There are so many illnesses in a list of global problems: cancer, tuberculosis, strokes and heart attacks etc. I consider that many sicknesses emerge because of people carelessness. After all nobody goes to diagnose himself when he has a headache or when a pimple appears. Meanwhile it could be brain or skin cancer and if it’s not detected at an early stage, it won’t be cured in future. Also many discovered illnesses aren’t taken seriously, eg depression, stress-related illnesses, obesity etc. The second reason of why diseases are hard to cure is a lack of funding. The most effective medicines and measures are, at the same time, the most expensive. And it complicates the struggle with diseases which have already been diagnosed because a lot of people in the world don’t have enough money for necessary treatment. I’m sure that science and medicine will be able to make a healthy and long life available for everyone.
