Cancer Literacy is a derminant of cancer outcomes and a priority in the EU Beat Cancer plan. Thanks to @MSDEurope for the spotlight on #healthliteracy during the #EuropeanCancerForum in Brussels. Bridging the gap is a political choice. #cancer #IHLA #MSD @EU_Commission @EUParl_EN

.@PeterHotez Thank you for persisting against these bullies.
1/n Many thanks for all your support these last few days, after the Steve Bannon’s dog whistle accusation and the Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, RFK Jr pile on, the online aggression, and even a stalking just for bringing home a Father’s Day cake, I didn’t know what to think or say.
