Biden's 'Cancer Moonshot' Initiative to Transform Cancer Treatment and Surgery

President Biden is spearheading the 'cancer moonshot' initiative, allocating $150 million to enhance cancer surgery technologies and improve tumor removal methods. The goal is to halve U.S. cancer deaths by 2047 through advanced imaging and microscopy techniques.

Experts advocate for increased funding for research programs to achieve this ambitious target. The initiative has already seen progress, with Medicare now covering essential services like colonoscopies.

Biden's push for banning menthol cigarettes and addressing Supreme Court reforms adds to his legacy in healthcare advancements.
