Why haven't we found a cure for the common cold?!


Question: The common cold! Something that has been around for (I'm guessing) all of humanity's existence. With all the advancements that the scientific community boasts, they still haven't found a cure! So what's the deal? Makes me wonder; If you can't cure something like a cold, then why should I believe you will find a cure for any other ailment from which humanity suffers? Why should I make donations to your "cause"? So what's the deal? Are you going to tell me that the common cold is just a name and the cause isn't so common? Tell me something I can sink my brains teeth into.

The cold is caused by several different viruses & they continue to mutate as fast as we can come up with treatments.

Because a cold is a virus with literally millions of causes. Like cancer, there isn't a single cause so you can't find a cure. You can help the symptoms but that isn't a cure.

It doesn't sound like you have a brain to sink your teeth into, my 5 year old knows the difference between a virus and a bacterial infection, that is curable.

There will never be a cure for the common cold the symptoms vary to much and differents things help to trigger it
