According to a domestic newspaper, the "five terminal diseases" listed by the World Health Organization are: 1. Aids II. Malignant tumor 3. Leukemia 4. Rheumatism. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) of unknown origin. The so-called "incurable disease" is measured by the treatment method, curative effect and effective time survival rate. For example, AIDS is recognized as a terminal disease of the century. After diagnosis, the estimated survival time is less than 65,438+00 years, and most of them died of multiple infections due to decreased immunity. At present, scientists are looking for an anti-AIDS vaccine. "Malignant tumor" can be selectively treated with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy if it is found early and has no metastasis. It is not uncommon for patients with malignant tumors to survive for 30 years after treatment! Leukemia depends on what type it is, some are malignant and some are benign. Even bone marrow transplantation, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are useless for malignant acute leukemia. As for rheumatoid disease, most patients can control their condition with drugs for a long time. At least 25% patients will "recover" or will not relapse in a short period of time. Most patients can live to their old age, but the overall mortality rate has increased. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a motor neuron disease. There is no effective treatment at present. When the patient is conscious, the function of the motor system is deprived one by one, and then the whole body is eroded ... It is a rare and terrible disease, and the survival rate is generally 2-5 years. Alzheimer's disease is also an incurable disease. After the patient became ill, his brain cells atrophied, his intelligence declined, and finally his whole body failed. At present, drugs have no definite curative effect, and he is usually killed in 7- 10 years. Spontaneous interstitial pneumonia is also incurable. Patients can die of respiratory failure in about six months. The treatment can be lung transplantation, but the success rate of lung transplantation is very low ... The well-known SARS is better to wait for death in isolation than to treat it. Thousands of people died in 2003, and there are no clues about treatment. Is human life too fragile? Eat, drink and be merry!
