Ending Cancer drug shortages in rural areas – American Society of Clinical Oncology

American Society of Clinical Oncology shared a post on LinkedIn:

“In smaller practices and rural areas, cancer drug shortages are particularly challenging because they can force patients to uproot their lives and travel far from home for treatment without their support systems, explains ASCO member Joanna Yang, MD.

Dr. Yang and all our members are calling on policymakers to end this crisis for good.

Join us by contacting your lawmakers today.”
