I think the third one is cancer. And I think there is quite a bit of press releases on new possible methods and drugs on it.



We’ve made an obscene amount of progress on cancer, and we’re getting better daily. We’ve made 0 progress on Alzheimer’s in ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY.

I would rather have AIDS and Ebola at the same time than Alzheimers.


To be fair, for a lot of human history we didn't long enough to see it, so we can't blame them for it.


I really hope that’s not a choice you have to make someday.
