Use of the word "crackdown" suggests there is some legitimacy here. It's an attack, one without any demonstrated scientific basis.

On 1st August my diagnosis changed from NSCLC to #SCLC, ending my time on Osimertinib and starting chemo & immunotherapy.
My first diagnosis in 2021 came after months of pain and being told it was tennis elbow or sciatica, until further tests confirmed EGFR+ Stage 4 #lungcancer.

Sylvie had back pain, shortness of breath & weight loss. She was told it was sciatica & sent home.
A scan finally showed a mass in her lung - it was stage 4 ALK+ #lungcancer that had spread to her bones, liver, spine & lymph nodes.

I screen for #LungCancer annually. So does my kid sister. Our mother died as a result of LC treatment. Most LC is caught at an advanced stage. Catch it in time. #StayAlive #lcsm
Did you know only 1 in 10 people at higher risk for #lungcancer get screened? Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. If caught early, lung cancer can be treated and survival rates can dramatically improve.
