Experts propose classifying incontinence as disease. Studies estimates that bladder control problems affect 200 million people worldwide and the incidence is on the rise. (Almost had an incidence myself a few weeks ago).
1500 health experts from around the world (dont look for any VVUS peopel there) have gathered in Moncaco for the first international consulation (??) on Inconsinence to launch the formal process of classifying the bladder control problems as a disease under the WHO's international classification of disease control. (No mention of removing MM's are one of the top 10 causes of this disease).
