Medical - Medical (general) / Study about Parkinson's
Arabic term or phrase: من المحال
باركنسون مرض عصبي يمكن معالجته بكفاءة وتقليل آثاره على صحة الإنسان ونشاطه اليومي، لكن من المحال حتى اليوم الشفاء منه تماماً.

Is "outbreak" correct?

Parkinson's is a neural disease which can be treated adequately. Its effect on human health and daily function can be lessened, yet it requires attention from [the?] outbreak to complete healing.
