Friday Facts: NLCP's view for 2022

The second edition of Friday Facts piggybacks onto the first edition. We're talking lung cancer survival rates. If you missed last week's edition, check out that post by clicking here!

By 2022, we will double the overall five-year lung cancer survival rate in the US. Achieving this ambitious goal will take dedication, collaboration and inspiration.

This is a more uplifting and hopeful look at the shockingly low survival rates of lung cancer. Recently, the National Lung Cancer Partnership announced that they hope to double the 5-year lung cancer survival rate by 2022! Achieving such a goal will take a lot of hope and a lot of innovation and a lot of hardworking people. NLCP plans to get here by funding research, treatment, tumor testing, and clinical trials. The goal is lofty but attainable. Find out how you can help by visiting the National Lung Cancer Partnership's website.
