BREAKING: The NHS is expanding access to liquid biopsy testing for thousands of people diagnosed with #lungcancer in England.

For those with ALK+ lung cancer, this means faster, less invasive testing & earlier treatment. A major step forward, but not yet for everyone. #LCSM

SARS‑CoV‑2 (COVID-19) @covid19disease.bsky.social · May 21

Just spoke with my CDC sources

They said a new COVID-19 wave is hitting NYC and LA.

Cases up~20% this week expected to rise further over the next month.

Exactly 4 months since the January 20 peak, the virus is resurging.

"Health disparities research" is a field of study where researchers look at how things like race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status can influence health outcomes. Now any gov't website about this says "page not found".

This is a dystopia that I did not imagine that we'd be living through.
