AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

PFAS & Youth Bone Health: A long-term study links higher PFAS (“forever chemicals,” especially PFOA) exposure to lower bone mineral density in children and teens, raising concerns about future fracture and osteoporosis risk. Caregiving in West Virginia: More than 375,000 West Virginians provide unpaid family caregiving worth over $3 billion a year, and the burden falls heavily on women juggling full-time work and major out-of-pocket costs. Rural Hospital Relief: Rep. Carol Miller and partners introduced the Rural Hospital Revitalization Act, offering interest-free federal loans to help rural hospitals build and renovate so patients don’t have to travel hours for care. Lung Cancer Screening Access: WVU Medicine’s mobile LUCAS unit will bring low-dose CT screenings to Randolph, Barbour, and Preston counties in late June, with options for insured and qualifying uninsured patients. Drug Problem Watch: A new WalletHub look ranks West Virginia among the worst for drug overdose deaths and unmet treatment needs, despite major settlements and recovery efforts. Medical Quality Lawsuit: The Greenbrier Clinic faces multiple class-action lawsuits over alleged poor mammography quality after FDA action tied to imaging standards. Public Health Infrastructure: Gov. Morrisey announced $1.15M+ for water and sewer projects supporting flood recovery and long-term reliability in Kanawha, Tucker, and Barbour counties. Traffic & Trauma: Two people were flown to Ruby Memorial after a tractor-trailer crash in Upshur County.
