A new Politico piece on chronic diseases quotes #CUNYSPH Prof. Jeffrey V Lazarus on how food environments shape health more than “individual choice”.

💬 “What are the options, what’s available, do you even have the ability to purchase healthy foods?”

Chronic diseases are squeezing economies. Leaders don’t have much of a plan.

The United Nations General Assembly is expected to sign off on a watered-down commitment to tackle noncommunicable diseases.

Tx for sharing. My question for Spain's secretary of health comes at 1 hour 9 min. It's about the commercial determinants of health and how Spain can reconcile its work to reduce NCDs while fomenting the sale of alcohol.

😶Liver disease is often suffered in silence.
Stigma and shame block care.

💡It’s a chronic illness, not consequence of bad choices.

🩺Everyone deserves support.
At #LIVERAIM, we’re breaking the silence.
