Abstract

Chronic Diseases were in the news last year at this time prompting me to author a piece found in these pages. I find that chronic diseases are once again in the news, but the media aren’t covering the body of knowledge built up over many years by public health and medical professionals that show us where there exist multiple opportunities to make a difference in the key arena of prevention. We continue to live in a time when our knowledge and our actions don’t always match up.
