Everyone whose anyone gets this disease, yet there is not cure for it? Throughout history we have seen many incurable diseases such as cancer, but the common cold of all diseases has not received a cure. What do you think? Will scientists really be able to cure the common cold?

Well the common cold developes, reproduce, and changes so quickly! Finding a cure would be very difficult and time consuming, but with the way science is heading I think that some time nothing will be impossible. But I think that science could also go too far. Some things, like the cold, should just be a part of life.

thats what i thought, but what would that leave us? We should have a vaccine that prevents us from getting it. Much more useful if u ask me. Will we get it though?

I doubt that a cure for the common cold will ever be found because of how fast it changes. They may come up with more ways to lesses a cold, but I doubt that a cure is in our future.
