Taboo

Sometimes, it is strange to find that people do have some sort of taboos in their daily life and many a time it can lead to tragedy eventually. Recently a girl died because she had always objected to being examined by doctors , many of whom happen to be males especially the specialists.If she had no such taboo she would long ago be found to have breast cancer at the early stage and be rid of such menace with the operation and follow-up treatments. It is foolish to refuse to be examined by males and she paid such mistake with her life.  Of course not all have the same problems but still many have taboos of one kind or another. Some even refuse to see doctors, specialists and only see Chinese druggists and physicians. Not that Chinese physicians are not good enough but there are limits what they can do. We still need all the sophisticated medical equipments  special ly developed in the labs and new effective drugs to treat many new diseases. Why not be subject to all scientifically well proven methods of treatments before going to traditional drugs/druggists? Act before it is too late and be fast to race against the fast-paced diseases and menaces.
