In this episode, we discuss long-term outcomes after chest-wall irradiation for breast cancer, new treatments for psoriasis and obesity, and early results on a vaccine for Lassa fever. We review opioid deprescribing and a clinical case describes spiraling into a distant past. Perspectives examine the corporatization of health care, the health effects of new energy legislation, and Medicaid cuts affecting U.S. children.
