Colds are so hard to cure because there are about a billion different kinds...

When antibiotics are invented, most bacteria develop mutations that allow them to be invulnerable to those vaccines...makein us create new antibbiotics, and the cycle goes on...

I know, it's a pain in the ass. I don't think we will ever develop a antibiotic that will fully cure the common cold.

well a cold is a virus and a virus's aren't alive so u can't kill it. its inside u all the time but it only comes out when it gets strong enough. u can only get rid of the symptons.

and viruses are always changing...therefore you can never cure it.
