U.S. Medical Research Expenditures
In 2006, here’s how our nation
prioritized its spending for medical research:
|
|
$ / Patient
|
|
DIABETES |
$48
|
|
ALZHEIMERS |
$144
|
|
PARKINSONS |
$154
|
|
AIDS |
$3084
|

And what are we told is the answer to solving the AIDS crisis---more
research dollars. Those suffering from Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s did
nothing on their part to cause their illness. AIDS can be wiped out
almost completely with a responsible change in sexual behavior.
