Curing COPD
Issue: The two main diseases categorized as chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases are asthma and emphysema. Currently there is no cure for COPD, the only options to control the disease are a variety of drugs and therapy, and surgery in some severe cases. However, drugs and therapy don't provide lasting relief and they can't undue damage caused by emphysema.
Action Plan:
1) research COPD: causes, current treatments, hypothesized cures
2) meet with a physician to discuss possible cures
3) formulate a cure or treatment or device
4) investigate costs, longevity of cure, and sustainability of cure
