Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, "kɔmplit mɛn" min se di kansa nɔ go ɛva kam bak. Bɔt "rɛmishɔn" min se dɛn nɔ go ebul fɔ gi da kayn garanti de.
Tu kayn rεmishכn de:
- Kɔmplit Rimishɔn: Insay dis kes, yu dɔktɔ nɔ kin ebul fɔ fɛn ɛni kansa sɛl na yu bɔdi tru tɛst ɔ skan. Yu nɔ gɛt ɛni simptom. Bɔt, i kin stil gɛt smɔl smɔl kansa sɛl dɛn we ayd sɔmsay na yu bɔdi we di tɛst nɔ kin no. Ɔ, yu kin bi 100% kansa-fri.
