We appreciate @TODAYshow for raising awareness of cancer screenings. However, we would have loved to have seen #lungcancer included. Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer. But only 4.5% of high risk Americans are getting screened. We need a segment on lung cancer screening! #LCAM🤍

How can we expect change when lung cancer screening continues to be left out of the conversation? We need national leaders like @CDC_Cancer and @CPSTF to step up and ensure that lung cancer screening is included. @NLCRTnews @DouglasEWood1 @ellakaz
New! CPSTF recommends patient navigation services to increase breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening and advance health equity. Patient navigation helps people overcome barriers to access cancer screenings. @CDC_Cancer
