Our new study just published in @AmJPrevMed. Many states have imposed new bans or restrictions on abortion since Roe v. Wade was overturned. We examined healthcare access among pregnant women in these (compared to other) states …

New study from Cambridge Health Justice lab explores how having a child with cystic fibrosis affects "job lock" and financial security of parents.

Our new study in @JAMAPediatrics from @LabCambridge — led by Lenore Azaroff — examines how parents/families with a child with Cystic Fibrosis fare economically Short answer: they more often experienced job lock, curtailed their employment, or struggled to pay medical bills 1/2

Our new study just up in @JournalGIM looks at RSV vaccine uptake in MA towns — finding *lower* uptake in communities with *higher* pulmonary risk (e.g. COPD prevalence), & higher uptake in wealthier towns. In other words, not going where it's needed link.springer.com/article/10.100…

New @LabCambridge study examines RSV vaccination across Massachusetts. Finds that rates are worse in places with higher risk of severe respiratory disease, and better in wealthier places. Current approach doesn't appear to target to where most needed. link.springer.com/epdf/10.1007/s…
