140 Million to save zero lives – still no cure.
Having suffered Bronchitis myself (although I think thats what the doctor said), I found this interesting bit of news article that tells a tale of a fundraiser, the cause, and the ridiculous sum to find a cure for Bronchitis.
And just the other day I was humoring a friend that enough is not being done to find cures for diseases, in particular the one I was suffering. For a race that has discovered how to split atoms and subsequently the nuclear bomb, it seemed completely incomprehensible. But I stand corrected (though I wish I wasn’t – I mean, c’on, 140M for Bronchitis!). It is evident that we are equally capable of investing in saving lives as we are of taking lives.
