Answers:
I can't comment on all these diseases BUT with Alzheimers the problem is ironically due to people living longer!.
Healthcare has been steadily increasing life expectancy, but the problem is that the human brain didn't evolve to live as long as we are now, so it start breaking down!. Life expectancy has increased, but quality of life for people in their old age isn't necessarily much better if they develop memory conditions!.
I would say though that lots of money is being pumped in to these disorders throughout the world!.
Also re AIDS there is some hope:

Research is being done all the time!. The reason people are living longer is that we are preventing diseases like cancer by better diet, exercise and anti-smoking campaigns!. So cancer patients are getting spotted earlier!.
Also nano-technology is a thing being developed!. Small molecular "robots" will be in our bodies looking for diseases, and giving very early warning!. Eventually these tiny "robots" will not only be able to detect illnesses like cancer, but the robots will be able to dissect and remove the tumours in a safe way, and indeed in the future people might get cancer but it will be cured automatically and so quickly that they might not realise that they even had it!

they are too busy with less important things like the war that should've been over by now!. but i agree!.!.!.!.these are things we should be way more concerned with!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Not every disease can be cured in our lifetime!. They are working on cures and finding progress!. Most childhood cancers are curable now!. 20 years ago it was likely a death sentence!. I have an Aunt that died at age 5 back in 1965 from leukemia!. It would be highly curable now!. It has nothing to do with pharmaceutical companies making a profit!. It has to do with funding!. Remember if the pharmaceutical companies aren't allowed to make a profit, there is no money for research and development!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Because the pharmaceutical companies dont make that much money on curing a disease!. Where they make there money is on treating it and lessening the effects of a disease!.
They then pay off the government officials by sending them on trips and donating to there campaigns!.
Which I find interesting as when was the last time you heard of a disease being the cured!. !?
I think that Polio was that last disease I can remember a cure being created for!. Instead all we hear about is there is a new treatment for so and so or there is a treatment that looks promising!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
