Alzheimer's Cure?

If money can be provided, workers and scientist are coming up with a medicine that could slow or even stop completely Alzheimer's disease. It's a disease that attacks the brain and causes memory loss for short or long periods of time. The medicine will hopefully be ready in three to five years. Next year will begin the studies of trying to put a stop to the disease. Although the process of making vaccines and medicines is very expensive, scientists and lab workers are confident that the medicine can work. By 2050, Alzheimer's disease is antisipating to grow greatly. Right now, 5.4 million people are suffering from Alzheimer's disease and by 2050, it will be up to 16 million.
