The gift of medicine

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

The year is 2040, and medicine worldwide is highly advanced. Humans no longer fear certain diseases, as vaccines have been developed for them. Cancer is already highly treatable and is no longer a death sentence as it was in the near past. There are even talks for further development of a special anti-cancer vaccine which should be produced in the following years. The life expectancy of human beings is estimated to be more than a hundred years with a prediction to reach even more in the following decades. Mental illnesses that were not completely treatable like schizophrenia will be due to our advanced understanding of the human brain. Nanotechnologies, such as robotics will further help in treating serious illnesses and during operations.

FUTURO SIN OLVIDAR EL PASADO
The best future should take into account all the past, take and preserve the best of the past generations, they are the ones that have always forged the future and without them the future is not very flattering. There is less and less interest in maintaining traditions and more interest in economics. There is very little respect, ethics and morality are at rock bottom, and politics prevails over social issues. There are many changes, yes, but the road ahead is long and winding. The extreme right is making its way by leaps and bounds throughout Europe, and that only represents one thing, the weariness of society, falling into the euphemisms proposed by the extreme right in a system of ignorance of society, which wants changes, less corruption, more resources, fewer politicians, less waste and more concern for the native people of each country. It is necessary to help the foreigner but it is necessary to control such aids...it is a nonsense. The future in Europe has to change and I hope that in 20 years, or less, it will be like this.

ville ou il fait bon vivre
a great improvement in the landscape, small buildings with hanging gardens, lots of parks, fewer cars . and a high level of security with cameras and vigilant neighbors, along with neighborhood get-togethers and aperitifs.

Ein besseres Europa
I would like to see a peaceful Europe where every nation state retains its sovereignty. The EU Parliament moves completely to Brussels to save costs. The citizens of Europe have a say and there are referendums. Politicians who allow themselves to make missteps consistently lose their immunity and are held accountable. They are also punished with possible prison sentences. There are no more public service media in Europe. Television stations and the media in general must finance themselves. There is freedom of expression in Europe. The respective constitutional protection agencies of the countries do not take care of unimportant things but really take care of the extremists. The politicians who misbehaved during the corona pandemic by being corrupt and embezzling massive amounts of taxpayers' money and making demonstrably false claims can now leave prison after serving long prison sentences. The former politicians will be paid the accumulated funds for their work during their time in prison. State benefits have been withdrawn from the politicians.

Die Pflege der Zukunft
A really interesting topic - what will Europe look like in 15 years' time? I'm 80 years old - I'll probably still be alive then, because life expectancy is increasing - also in terms of medical developments - and that's exactly where I want to start - it will probably be a few degrees warmer than it is now and humanity is adapting to this with new technologies. Medical care will probably be completely digitalized and we will be cared for by robots if necessary. I now ask myself whether the social and interpersonal aspects will not fall by the wayside.
