grammatically OK.
#1 This experimental drug raises the treatment of an entire category of diseases to a higher plane.
This means that the drug improves the treatment of one class of disease.
for example: skin disease, lung disease, or some other diseases that the medical people group together.
#2 This experimental drug raises the treatment of the entire categories of disease to a higher plane.
This means it improves the treatment of every disease.
N.B. If both are OK. What difference does it make? |
