[News] US lung cancer report suggests years of encouraging progress under threat from health agency cuts

The latest national report of the American Lung Association 2025: State of Lung Cancer Report was published on Nov 5, 2025, detailing progress on lung cancer, treatment and diagnosis. It reveals multiple areas of improvement but also warns that the mass firing of staff from health agencies including the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), along with cuts to the Affordable Care Act (also known as Obama Care), are putting years of progress under threat.
