A Good News Story

From The Vancouver Sun:-
Breast-cancer sufferers could avoid the need for surgery in the future after doctors discovered a way of destroying tumours by freezing them.

The scientists adapted a technique used to treat prostate cancer to successfully destroy breast-cancer tumours in 13 patients, a conference was told.

Early days and all that, but it sounds promising.

It's important to put these things into context. Add up all the scientific and technological advances over 5 years, and very few political leaders can measure up in terms of improving their country.
