I am aware that rheumatism can hardly be cured by neither orthodox nor unorthodox medications and this makes me to wonder why the World Health Organization (WHO) refused to spend at least half of the money spent on HIV/AIDS on Rheumatoid Arthritics because it is as destructive as AIDS itself.
Scientist should also research deeply into finding a lasting solution to this all age global scourge depleting mankind.
