    I think degenrative diseases like Lou gehrigs or anything that slowly incapacitates you it awful. I dont think its Aids either because you can live a normal life for decades with HIV.

    Also MRSA definitely doent kill more people than Aids. In 2007 about 90,000 died from MRSA but 2 million died of AIDS.

    Cancer ,HIV/AIDS, Smallpox, Ebola or Necrotizing Fasciitis (Flesh Eating Disease)

    Probably cancer 'cause of all the hell that you go through, all the pain in it, and knowing that you'll get weaker and weaker and weaker and probably die. HIV/AIDS doesn't cause as much pain, Smallpox is treatable, and Ebola and Necrotizing Fasciitis (Flesh Eating Disease) will kill quickly, as will Smallpox if left untreated.

    Also: Smallpox is irraticated (it is still possible to get, as it still exists (securly contained) in two places; CDC in Atlanta, Georgia, USA and in Moscow, Russia. Americans fear the possibility that Koltsovo, Russia will use this virus as biological warfare (bioterrorism).

    All in all, I'd say cancer is the worst; you suffer almost all of the above symptoms and it lasts a long time. =(

    i think of AIDs may be the worst because of fact a million. there is an entire social stigma approximately it... 2. no longer in basic terms are you somewhat ill yet you could hassle approximately spreading it to human beings and 3. once you have AIDs you finally end up getting a gaggle of ailments including maximum cancers.... it is an rather terrible death.

    Really anything where you are in need of blood Because in a lot of places there are not enother people that donate blood. So there isn't that much blood for the sick. Becasue your blood if you donate is divied to White Blood Cells and other things and it is great to the last drop.

    Anything autoimmune, like cancer or aids because once you get these, you will most likely die and after lots of pain, treatments and stress knowing you will die anyways.
