Common Cold

Illness List
Universe : Prime Timeline
Name : Common Cold [1]

Earth disease which was notoriously difficult to cure. In 2151 Lieutenant Reed suffered from a cold, though he thought it remarkable that he could have contracted the disease in the closed environment of a starship and claimed that any species that had the ability to travel faster than the speed of light should surely be able to cure the common cold. [2] More than a century later the common cold remained uncured amongst Humans in 2269. [3] It was finally cured at some point prior to 2364. [4]
