Medicine 2000
During the new decade, the paralysed will walk. There will be cures for many more cancers. We will be able to actually see, and possibly treat, the ravages of multiple sclerosis in the living brain.

Unless we balance costs and savings to shape medicine in the year 2000, no country will be able to afford treatments for all those in need. Written and produced by PETER CERESOLE
