Outside Reading Post 28

For today's outside reading post, I want to comment on the article, Disease, by Maggie McPherson, on MSN. This article was talking about how disease plays a big role in the development of modern medicine, and I found it kind of interesting to read about. One example she used was Polio. It's a rare disease, but it had killed a lot of people when there was no vaccine for it. The development of modern medicine found a vaccine for Polio, and now it's almost completely gone from our world. I found this article interesting because the author mainly used hard core evidence to prove her point. I looked into her evidence that she used and they really helped back up her point. Anyways, it just gave me ideas for essay writing and such.
