"Cancer treatment in Taiwan is close to being on a par with that in advanced countries," says Whang-Peng, citing childhood leukemia as an example: in Taiwan, the five-year survival rate for childhood leukemia is as high as 90-95 %. But the cure rate for leukemia in adults is only 20-30 % due to limited cell regeneration capacity.
「台灣的癌症治療已和先進國家相去不遠，」彭汪嘉康以小兒白血病（血癌）為例，台灣的 5 年存活率高達 90-95％，不過成人因細胞再生能力不佳，治癒率只有 20-30％。
