Current research suggests that a reduction in breast cancer screenings at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic may have contributed to fewer early-stage and more late-stage breast cancer diagnoses in 2020 (latest statistics available) than in 2019, according to a study published by the journal JAMA Network Open.3

Many people experienced delayed or cancelled mammograms because of the pandemic, and these disruptions may have contributed to later-stage breast cancer diagnoses, when the disease is more difficult to treat.3,4

While mammography screenings rebounded overall by July 2020, the cumulative deficit of missed mammograms may have important public health consequences,5 including the furthering of health disparities.6

Since 2021, breast cancer diagnoses have exceeded lung cancer diagnoses, becoming the most diagnosed cancer worldwide.7,8

In the United States, it is estimated that about 287,850 women in 2022 will be diagnosed with breast cancer.9 Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in the U.S., and this year it’s estimated that about 30% of all newly diagnosed cancers in women will be breast cancers.10

For those facing a breast cancer diagnosis, the treatment that follows can be challenging and time consuming. Additionally, the type of breast cancer a patient has — including triple negative, HER2+ or HR+ — impacts the type of treatment they’ll receive.

Dr. Ahmed Elkhanany, a breast cancer expert at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, will discuss the latest news surrounding delays in breast cancer screenings and some of the recent treatment options. A patient share her experience too.

This year’s International Day of Peace comes at a crisis point for humanity.

COVID-19 has turned our world upside-down.

Conflicts are spinning out of control.

The climate emergency is worsening.

Inequality and poverty are deepening.

And mistrust and division are driving people apart at a time when solidarity and collaboration are needed more than ever.

As a human family, we face a stark choice —

Peace or perpetual peril.

We must choose peace.

That is why I call for a 24-hour ceasefire today.

And by working in solidarity for a lasting, sustainable peace every day, we can tackle the issues facing us.

We need peace to urgently deliver lifesaving vaccines and treatment for COVID-19.

We need peace to recover from the pandemic and re-build shattered systems and shattered lives.

We need peace to level the playing field and reduce inequalities.

We need peace to renew trust in one another — and faith in facts and science.

And we need to make peace with nature — to heal our planet, build a green economy, and achieve our net-zero targets.

Peace is not a naïve dream.

It’s a light in the darkness.

Guiding us to the only pathway to a better future for humanity.

Let’s walk the pathway of peace as if our lives depended on it.

Because they do.

Thank you.

Small business owners have had to be resilient AND agile over the past two years in order to remain successful during uncertain times.

Joining us now to discuss the challenges and the rewards of running a small business is Brad Brodigan, Head of Small Business solutions at chase.

BIO:
Brad Brodigan is the Managing Director, Global Head of SMB a JPMorgan Chase & Co. Prior to joining JPMC, he held several leadership roles at the following: Deem, Inc. PayPal, Dosh, BlueVine and more. He is a graduate of Virginia Military Institute where he earned his bachelor’s degree in economics and business. Brad currently resides in Danville, California.

GENERAL OVERVIEW
Brad is successfully bringing home the “more than banking” narrative in the media coverage he’s been featured in during his time at JPMC. He knows business owners’ time is just as important as their money and his message pull-through proves to be helpful in displaying the Chase Payment Solutions (CPS) impact in the sector. Brad holds roughly 10 years of leadership experience in the payments industry, so now is the time to bring these insights to the forefront with the media. He is well-versed in what makes CPS’ technology worthwhile for businesses.

New Year Provides Opportunity to Set Healthy Goals for Future

Adults across the country can now access comprehensive preventive care without visiting a doctor’s office. Quest Diagnostics is launching a consumer-initiated virtual preventive care service that will empower individuals to take control of their health by offering many of the tests and biometric screenings that a doctor would typically order as part of an annual physical, as well as a virtual consultation with a healthcare practitioner at no additional charge.

http://questhealthscore.com/

The offering is called the Comprehensive Health Profile and is designed to meet the needs of individuals who want more visibility into their own health information and access to preventive care at their fingertips.

Specifically, the QuestDirect offering includes lab tests, a behavioral risk assessment, weight, blood pressure and other information that will provide individuals a personalized snapshot of their overall health. The Comprehensive Health Profile will also be combined with a Health Risk Assessment to provide a unique Health Quotient Score, which can be tracked over time to gauge progress against one’s goals. This score is unique to each individual and factors in family health history, health and wellness behaviors, biometrics, and lab test results.

This offering offers a new way for individuals to rethink their annual physical. That’s especially important as studies show that many people haven’t visited a doctor during the pandemic or have avoided regular preventive care due to issues of convenience, privacy and trouble accessing healthcare services.

Dr. Jeffrey Dlott, Medical Director, Consumer Health, Quest Diagnostics, will discuss the new virtual preventive care service and how it can help individuals take control of their health with ease and convenience.

Interview is courtesy: Quest Diagnostics

IN THE NEW YEAR – WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT FOR INDIVIDUALS TO TAKE STOCK OF WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR HEALTH?

WHAT HAS BEEN THE PROBLEM IN RECENT TIMES WHEN IT COMES TO PEOPLE TAKING CONTROL OF THEIR HEALTH?

CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE NEW PROGRAM LAUNCHING THAT WILL HELP PEOPLE ACCESS VIRTUAL PREVENTIVE CARE?

SPECIFICALLY, HOW WILL THE PROGRAM WORK?

HOW CAN THE PROGRAM HELP PEOPLE GAUGE THEIR PROGRESS? …AND WHERE CAN THEY LEARN MORE?

Hi, Reverend Paul Sladkus we are here in my backyard between 79th and 80th, in NYC.

7 O’clock is the time that we have been showing our appreciation for the heroes of our city and of the world during this most difficult pandemic period. Today is Martin Luther King Day, Doctor Martin Luther King, and we decided to have a broadcast as our passion is about what Dr. King stood for.

Hola, soy reverendo Paul Sladkus estoy aquí en la parte trasera de mi patio, entre las calles 79 y 89 en la ciudad de Nueva York. Son las 7:00 pm, el tiempo que estamos mostrando nuestro agradecimiento a los héroes de nuestra ciudad y del mundo durante este periodo tan difícil de pandemia. Hoy es el día de Martin Luther King, el Doctor Martin Luther King y hemos decidido hacer esta transmisión, porque nuestra pasión es sobre lo que representaba el Dr. Martin Luther King.

你好，我是保罗·斯拉德库斯牧，我现在在纽约79街到80街之间的一个后院。现在是晚上7点，我想感谢全世界那些为我们付出的人和城市，特别是在这个疫情的期间。今天马丁·路德·金纪念日，马丁·路德·金博士，所以我们决定做一个节目来表达我们对金博士的支持。

Peace and Freedom. Many years ago we did an interview with a facility that was built around 2014, we interview the Executive Director for the National Center for Civil and Human Rights which is down in Atlanta next to the Coco Cola Pavilion down there and other and they got a lot of Corporate Sponsors and they built a wonderful Museum to honor Martin Luther King for the period of human rights and civil rights, this event is a benefit for them.

Paz y libertad. Muchos años atrás hicimos una entrevista en una instalación que se construyo alrededor de 2014, entrevistamos al Director Ejecutivo para los Derechos Civiles y Humanos que esta en Atlanta, Georgia al lado del Pabellón Coca Cola al lado del Pabellón de Coco Cola, allí obtuvieron muchos patrocinadores corporativos y construyeron un maravilloso museo, para horrar a Dr. Martin Luther King, para el periodo de los Derechos Humanos y Derechos Civiles este evento es un beneficio para ellos.

自由与和平。许多年前我们进行了一个采访，对一个2014左右年建成的设施。我们采访了国家公民与人权中心位于亚特兰大州和佐治亚州，在可口可乐纪念馆旁边。他们得到了很多公司的赞助，所以他们建了一个很棒的博物馆，来纪念马丁·路德·金他对人权与民权的贡献。

So that is an important subject to us, as you know we have been involved in Peace and our Peace Day Party for the world. Tonight, we wanted to do a special program and share it with many people and to give some kind of understanding on how to create a show, because we are on Facebook Live and you can do that with your own community. We will also rebroadcast this on www.goodnewsplanet.TV and will put the broadcast into some different language, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic and Hindi and others and help others learn how to create a show and broadcast it.

Así que es un tema muy importante para nosotros, como saben hemos estado involucrados en la Paz y nuestra Fiesta del Día de la Paz para el mundo. Esta noche queríamos hacer un programa especial y compartirlo con muchas personas y dar algún tipo de compresión de como crear un programa, porque estamos en Facebook Live y puedes hacerlo con tu propia comunidad. También estaremos retransmitiendo esto en www.goodnewsplanet.TV y pondremos esta emisión en diferentes idiomas, español, chino, árabe, hindi y otros. Toma este Podcasts y ayuda a otros aprender como hacer Podcasts.

这对我们是一个非常非常重要的主题。因为如您所知，我们一直在参与世界上的和平活动和关于和平日常的聚会。所以今晚我们想做一个节目和许多人分享，同时也为了更加了解怎么做节目，因为我们现在在做Facebook Live。你也可以在你的朋友圈做这些，我们也将会传到www.goodnewsplanet.tv并且讲内容翻译成其他的语言，西班牙语，中文，阿拉伯语和北印度语，帮助其他人学习如何制作节目并进行播出。

The first thing about broadcast something after my 40 plus years in the business is do something that you are passionate about and the Martin Luther King Day is something that I am passionate about. We did a movie on Woodstock with Richie Havens and he was passionate about Martin Luther King and one of the songs that I am going to play right not was adapted by Pete Seeger who was a good friend of ours as well and stood with Martin Luther King.

Lo primera cosa de transmitir algo después de más de 40 años en los negocios es hacer algo que te pasiones y el día de Martin Luther King es algo que me apasiona. Hicimos una película en Woodstock con Richie Havens y él era un apasionado con Martin Luther King y una de las canciones que voy a tocar ahora mismo fue creado y adaptado por Peter Seeger, quien fue un buen amigo de nosotros y estuvo con Martin Luther King.

所以 关于播出节目的第一件事，在我工作了40年以后我发现了，是做自己热衷的事，而马丁·路德·金纪念日也是我热衷的事情。我和里奇·黑文斯在伍德斯托克拍了个电影，他也对马丁·路德·金很有热情。而我现在要演奏的其中一首歌是由皮特·西格改编的，他也和我们一样热衷于马丁·路德·金。

So, let’s get to some music, we are then going to go inside and I am going to play some piano and make it a Name That Tune Soul Music and some other music, we only have a half an hour. So, it’s all good, thank you for tuning in we hope that you take a moment to ponder where the world is right now. OK here we go.

Entonces vamos a poner algo de música, luego vamos a entrar y voy a tocar algo de piano y hacer un Tune Soul Music y alguna otra música, nosotros solo tenemos media hora. Entonces todo estará bien, gracias por sintonizarnos y esperamos que tomes un momento para reflexionar sobre donde el mundo esta en este momento. Bien, aquí vamos.

好了，让我们现在来点音乐。我准备进到屋里然后弹几首钢琴，我想将它称为心灵小调，或许其他。我们只有一个半小时，所以我们准备好了。再次谢谢你的到来，我们希望你能花一点时间来思考一下关于现在的世界。好了，我们走吧。

So we are going to rebroadcast this on www.goodnewsplanet.Tv, Thank you very much for coming and listening and we will make this into a show, if it recorded, it’s a hard thing to do a one man show, record it, tickle the Ivories, sing a little bit and play the sax. . We Shall Overcome, We Have Overcome… The World is at Peace, there are a few that are not at Peace, they can’t share their difference without bopping someone in the head. We preach NONVIOLENCE and PEACE.

Entonces, estaremos retrasmitiendo esto en www.goodnewsplanet.Tv, muchas gracias por venir y escuchar, lo estaremos convirtiendo en un programa, si esto se graba, nunca lo chequee, es muchas cosas que hacer para una sola persona grabarlo, tocar piano (teclas), cantar y tocar el saxofón. Venceremos, hemos vencido…. El mundo esta en Paz, hay algunos que no están en Paz, ellos no pueden compartir sus diferencias sin golpear a alguien en la cabeza. Nosotros predicamos NO VIOLENCIA.

我们将在www.goodnewsplanet.tv上转播此视频，非常感谢您的参与和收听。我们将把它制作成一个节目，如果它还在录像，我可不想再检查一次。做个人节目确实有点难，录像，挠痒痒，唱歌，和吹萨克斯。我们得克服，必须得克服，世界正在和平中，虽然有一些不和平。有一些人不和别人争破头就无法证明自己的不同，而我们宣扬非暴力与和平。

Every time anybody thinks about who were peacemakers in our lifetime you know that Martin Luther King name does come up, with some of the greatest Peacemakers in history. So, I say it is an honor to spend a couple of moments together with Dr. King. Donate to that Museum/National Center, they have a collection of his writing and a lot of other important information, Richie Havens says that when he was singing at Woodstock that Martin Luther King’s Assassination wa part of what was going on, there was a WAR Vietnam and it was a tough time. Woodstock came out of the time.

Cada tiempo que alguien, piensa acerca de quienes fueron los pacificadores en nuestra vida sabes aparece el nombre de Martin Luther King, Dr. Martin Luther King viene como algunos de los grandes pacificadores en la historia de nuestros tiempos. Entonces, digo que es un honor pasar un par de momentos en honor a el. Dona al Museo National Center, ellos tienen una colección de sus escritos y muchas otras informaciones importantes acerca del tiempo. Richie Havens dice que cuando el estaba cantando en Woodstock que el asesinato de Martin Luther King’s fue parte de lo que estaba pasando, Vietnam estaba en guerra y era un momento difícil en ese periodo de tiempo. Woodstock salió del tiempo.

每当我们想起在我们生命中出现的那些带来和平的人，你就会想到马丁·路德·金的名字，还有历史上一些最伟大的和平缔造者。因此，我很荣幸与金博士见过一段时间，捐赠给那个博物馆/国家中心，他们收集了他的著作和许多其他重要的资料。里奇·黑文斯说，当时他在伍德斯托克音乐节唱歌，针对马丁·路德·金的暗杀正在发生。那时候还发生了越南战争，是一个艰苦的时期，伍德斯托克音乐节就是在那个时期。

We shut know that we are going through a hard time now, and we are all going to get through it, get a vaccination, wear a mask, be smart, love one another and Peace to all of you Thank you for tuning in, go to www.goodnewsplanet.TV as we will be broadcasting it. If you have good news to share with us please do because Your Good News is Our Good News! Thank you very much and I got a FREEDOM TIE and you have FREEDOM YOURSELF. Thank you for tuning in… Gibran, There is a desire deep within the soul which drives man from the seen to the unseen, to philosophy and to the divine. Welcome into our lives, thank you very much and we are going to end with Peace On Earth, as this is what it is all about. WE LOVE YOU.

Sabemos que estamos pasando momentos difíciles ahora y todos vamos a salir hacia delante, vacunarnos, usar mascarilla, ser inteligentes, amarnos unos a otros y paz para todos ustedes. Gracias por sintonizarnos, vayan a www.goodnewsplanet.TV ya que estamos transmitiendo. ¡Si tienes nueva noticias que compartir con nosotros por favor hazlo porque tus buenas noticias es nuestras nuevas noticias!

Health disparities are defined as avoidable and unfair differences in the health of people or groups that negatively impact their quality of life and life expectancy. Research has shown that clear disparities exist in relation to HIV and other sexually transmitted infections, mental health, and COVID-19.

Now a new report conducted by Economist Impact explores the opportunities that could be created by eliminating health disparities over the next 20 years, while charting a bold course for unified action. Some key findings in the report include:
• Disparities in care are avoidable, unfair, and cost us all
• Addressing inequities must be an urgent moral, social, and economic priority
• Various organizations must contribute to the pursuit of health equity
• Systems are slow to promote equity because they are often incentivized not to

The next steps to achieve health equity by 2040 include the following recommended actions:
1. Restructuring the health system to incentivize prevention for both physical and mental health
2. Reimagining investment beyond the upfront cost, towards longer term investments
3. Making practical changes that improve collaboration
4. Improving knowledge of how to best reach certain populations

The report concludes that inaction can be as powerful as action. It shows that to eliminate health disparities, key groups at a community and system level must work together to improve health equity.

Dr. Keith Rawlings, M.D., Senior Medical Director of ViiV Healthcare, will be available to discuss the impact of health inequities in your local community and how they are negatively impacting particular groups, including Black, Latinx, and minority ethnic groups. He will also talk about the new roadmap to eliminating these disparities, particularly as it relates to the HIV epidemic.

The post Health Disparities in the U.S. Exposed During COVID Calls for Less Talk, More Action A NEW REPORT IS CHARTING A BOLD ROADMAP TO ACHIEVE HEALTH EQUITY BY 2040 appeared first on Good News!.

The high number of U.S. adults that have delayed or avoided medical care during the pandemic has led to adverse health outcomes, including increased risk for heart disease and stroke, and the latest data shows that cardiovascular disease is trending in the wrong direction. After the first year of the pandemic, there was a rise in heart disease and stroke-related deaths and declines in physical activity.
As the end of the year quicky approaches, many Americans may be thinking about how they can get their health back on track – such as getting back to the doctor and making new year’s resolutions.
Based on age and health status, there are many factors that Americans should be considering when talking to their doctor, especially when it comes to heart disease and stroke. It’s important for people to ask their doctor the right questions, including what healthy blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol levels are, and how they can check those levels at home. It’s also a good time to check with a doctor on small steps they can take, like activity and diet, to live a heart healthy lifestyle.
Heart disease is the number one cause of death for Black adults in the US. As with too many other issues, Black adults are disproportionately impacted – rates of premature heart disease are 87% higher for Black adults than white adults. CDC Foundation has launched a new national campaign to encourage adults to make heart health a priority—reminding them they can get to it in small steps. The “Start Small. Live Big,” effort focuses specifically on older adults (51% of adults with cardiovascular disease are age 60 or over, according to the American Heart Association).
The campaign encourages adults to get back on track with the small steps—like scheduling their medical appointments, getting active and eating healthy—so that they can get back to living big.
The CDC Foundation collaborated with CDC’s Million Hearts® Initiative to develop the campaign, designed to support CDC’s goal of preventing one million heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular events.
Dr. Larry Sperling, cardiologist and executive director of the CDC Million Hearts initiative, Americans should ask their doctors at end-of-year visits to help get their health back on track.
