More preventative care - if you catch cancer early, it's easier to treat. Same goes for infectious disease. Vaccines, blood testing, screening cholesterol, all that. An ounce of prevention...

Gene Therapy was an idea 30 years ago that sounded cool on paper. Twenty years ago it was a steaming disaster heap of failure. Today, it's the next big thing. They're only a couple years from building vaccines that are essentially a temporary gene therapy. We can take cells out of the body and use it to reprogram them to kill cancer, we can put genes into the cancer and cause the body to kill it. We can put other genes on cancer and then deliver chemo -just- to the cancer cells. Which is a long way from just thinking about maybe curing a couple genetic illnesses, which is where we were at twenty years ago.Health Question & Answer
