Everyday more and more people are dying. People are dying from something that can be stopped. Senseless dying, just because people are too lazy or just don't care enough. These people are dying from disease, colds, and simple illnesses that can easily be stopped. These people are the plague of our generation that spread the illness from person to person without even batting an eye, the people that make you sick, both physically and metaphorically.

These are the dumb diseases and colds that make you angry when you get them, the ones that shouldn't even be around. Easily transferable diseases like STDs or simple head colds. Ones that if people were smart enough to just cover their cough or to wear protection, nobody would have to worry about. These are the diseases that stick with you, the ones that evolve and adapt every day they become stronger and more resistant to common medicine. Diseases that you wonder if they ever will go away, or if they will stick with you forever.

According to the CDC “Center for Disease Control” as of 2016 Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common STD. There are about 4-8 million cases each year, now I don’t know about you, but that’s WAY more than what it should be. Considering it's something that can be prevented. Stated by the CDC on July 22, 2014 young adults from the ages of 15-24 make up 50% of all the new cases of STDs each year, even though they only represent about  25% of the sexually active population.

Over the years these abominations of nature have evolved and become stronger, that they can create new viruses, or transform into something worse. As stated by one of “cancer”s articles they predict that there will be over one and a half million new cases of cancer and almost six hundred thousands deaths in 2016 in the us alone. Imagine all of those lives that will be lost, equivalent to the population of milwaukee dead in one year. Thats crazy how many lives are lost each year to a disease that has evolved into what we know it as today.

Now whether people think that is a big number or not, there are always going to be people dying, and there are always going to be people getting sick. Now we can try to prevent it as best as we can, but death will always find a new way to evolve and hunt you down.

It may sound like a scary thought, but it's up to you to choose if your going to sit inside and wait for death, or if you're going to take life by the horns, and live the life you have.
