I'm not surprised. A few years ago I read a convincing article (it might have been in The Atlantic actually) that most advances in medical quality of life in the last 150 years have actually been in public health and prevention measures. Things like sanitation, screening, building code, vaccines, dental cleaning, and so forth. The exceptions also tended to be broad-based treatments like antibiotics.
This would be in line with that. Better treatments would certainly be great but sometimes I think prevention is underrated.
