【No. 0790】Cold

Feb 15, 2017 22:32
Unfortunately I have caught a cold.

I have a sore throat and a headache, and feel a chill.

So today I will talk about trivia about a cold.

More than 90% of common colds are caused by virus infection.

The number of virus types is more than 800, and medicines that suppress these viruses hasn't been developed yet.

Doctors prescribe might medicines for you, but they only have an effect to suppress the symptoms.

Since such medicines have also adverse effects, many doctors and pharmacists heal on its own when they catch a cold.

Incidentally, if you can develop a specific medicine for colds, no doubt you win the Nobel Prize.
風邪

風邪をひいてしまいました。

喉と頭が痛く、悪寒がします。

今日は、風邪についての雑学を少し話そうと思います。

風邪は9割以上がウイルス感染によるものです。

ウイルスの種類は800以上にのぼり、これらウイルスを抑える薬は未だに存在しません。

我々が病院で処方してもらう薬は、風邪の症状を抑える効果しかありません。

風邪薬には副作用もあるため、多くの医師や薬剤師が風邪にかかった際は、薬に頼らず自然に治癒するのを待つそうです。

もし風邪の特効薬を開発することができたら、ほぼ確実にノーベル賞をもらえるようです。

    You don't need to mention the medicine again because it was mentioned recently.

    Since the outcome isn't guaranteed, you should use the conditional tense here.
