/24-7PressRelease/ - TORONTO, CANADA, August 08, 2008 - Death and disease are subjects that people prefer not to discuss but it is interesting to see how one would act when confronted with the ultimate "what if" question.
In a recent survey, over 1,500 Canadians were asked, "If you had to have a terrible disease, which one would it be?"
Those surveyed were given a list of diseases to choose from. The list included: Alzheimer's, cancer, cerebral palsy, hepatitis, HIV, lupus, malaria, multiple sclerosis, and others.
Although some people found it difficult to answer this question, the results were unexpected.
Surprisingly, 15.4 % responded that cancer would be the disease of choice, while the least favorable diseases were cerebral palsy (7.2%) and multiple sclerosis (8.2%). Diseases that effect ones ability to function, were the least preferred as opposed to serious internal illnesses.
The results were:
·Cancer - 15.4%
·Other - 15.4%
·Malaria - 13.2%
·Alzheimer's - 12.3%
·Hepatitis - 10.2%
·Lupus - 9.0%
·HIV - 8.4%
·Multiple Sclerosis - 8.2%
·Cerebral Palsy - 7.2%
