Death”. When it comes to the cause of the disease, Fan Dongsheng said, “At present, the medical community only knows that 10% of patients are genetically related, and the cause of the remaining 90% of patients is unclear, so the only way to maintain the neurological vitality of patients and delay the deterioration of the disease is through drugs.” But because the drugs used to treat the disease are not yet covered by medical insurance and are expensive, many poor patient families have to give up treatment.

This disease does not affect the patient’s intelligence, memory or senses. Like the well-known generation of theoretical physics master, scientific giants Hawking is a “progressive”.
