In full: Cameron on the NHS at 60

Abstract:
And now, at the start of the 21st century, we are on the cusp of a further evolution - a revolution, really - as we face the amazing possibilities of genetics, nanotechnology and robotics.

It's as if, having scratched away using open-cast mining for thousands of generations, we've suddenly discovered the far richer seams that lie deep beneath the surface - and we're quickly developing the technologies to reach them.

The 21st century is going to be the most exciting time in the history of medical science - with many terrors too, of course - but I am hugely optimistic about mankind's potential to cure some of mankind's oldest fears.
