#Cancer doesn’t discriminate and neither should cancer care. That is why at Pfizer we are committed to bridging gaps and addressing inequalities in care to help ensure that all people living with cancer can benefit from advances in science.   This #WorldCancerDay, we renew our promise to continue building a healthier and more equitable future in cancer care. Pfizer is proud to partner with healthcare providers, patient advocacy groups and other stakeholders to help #CloseTheCareGap through more equitable and inclusive clinical trial designs, programs to reach underserved communities with education, prevention, screening and care, and unique partnerships to accelerate access to our therapies. https://lnkd.in/gDtQYBsD #PfizerProud #WorldCancerDay #CloseTheCareGap

During this busy time of year, it’s important to take a minute to remember what we’re thankful for. At ACS CAN, we’re thankful for time. Time for grandparents to spend with their grandchildren. Time for holidays spent together. Time for priceless memories to be made. Time for milestones, like graduations, weddings and more. We want cancer patients and their families to have this time. Making new, innovative cancer screening tests available to more people could make this possible. Please send a message to your members of Congress urging them to pass the #MCEDAct, which would create a pathway for Medicare to cover new, groundbreaking early detection tests that can screen for dozens of cancers at the same time once they are FDA-approved and shown to have clinical benefit. Will you help us #FightCancerMakeTime? https://lnkd.in/e_cytt4f
