What used to be an incurable disease in medicine, but now it has been overcome?
There was once a most typical incurable disease in medicine, tuberculosis. In ancient China, if you had tuberculosis, it could almost be announced that this person's life span would not be very long, so in ancient times, tuberculosis was a terminal disease, just like many of our terminal diseases today. At that time, if you got tuberculosis, your condition would deteriorate and affect their life span. In ancient China, tuberculosis was called consumption. And at that time, I knew that tuberculosis was contagious, so the fate of tuberculosis patients at that time was very tragic, and they were likely to die in loneliness. But with the development of science and technology, tuberculosis can be cured now, and the probability of recurrence after cure is very low, which is also an important achievement in the history of traditional Chinese medicine. Of course, the following diseases have also been overcome:

1, smallpox

I believe many people who study history will remember smallpox, because smallpox was an incurable disease in ancient times with a very high incidence. Most importantly, once you get smallpox, it is very likely that this person will declare that life is not far away. Only a few people can survive after suffering from smallpox, but with the emergence of vaccines, smallpox has been overcome.

2. AIDS

Although from now on, AIDS is still an incurable disease, but with the development of science and technology, human beings have reached the level of fighting AIDS, and the condition can be stabilized at a balanced level. Aids, like diabetes, cannot be cured, but it can be controlled by certain medical means.

3. Some tumors

When it comes to tumors, everyone will definitely look pale, because from the current medical point of view, malignant tumors are still the most difficult disease to cure, but with the development of science, a small number of tumors have been conquered by human beings, even malignant tumors can be well controlled.
