The statements “this disease can be cured” and “this disease can be treated” do not necessarily mean the same thing.
Curing a disease typically refers to the complete elimination of the disease, its symptoms, and any underlying causes.
Curing a disease usually means that the patient will no longer have the disease or its effects.
Treating a disease, on the other hand, often involves managing the symptoms and controlling the progression of the disease without necessarily removing the disease itself.
