NIH cancels its first and largest study centered on women The Women’s Health Initiative has produced numerous influential findings

This is devastating for women’s health research globally, given the influential work by WHI

🔪 Another attack on women

🚫 Fewer discoveries to understand female biology, health & disease

🚫 Fewer diagnostics, therapeutics, preventions

💀More disease, suffering, death
