  Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases affecting millions of people worldwide. Despite decades of research, finding a cure for cancer has been elusive. However, the Mayo Clinic has recently made a groundbreaking discovery that could revolutionize cancer treatment.

The avowed goal of the DDR was to construct a society founded on the values of justice and equality.  With public ownership of the means of production as its foundation, the nation grew into a powerful and efficient industrial state that utilised its economi...
