National CPR Week is June 1-7. Most people who experience cardiac arrest at home, work, or a public location die because they don't receive immediate CPR from someone on the scene. This video: youtube.com/watch?v=UxEfQJP3MQk from American Heart Association shows the proper way to administer hands-only CPR. If you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest and use an automated external defibrillator (AED) anytime one is available.

HIV affects Americans from all walks of life, yet the epidemic continues to disproportionately impact certain members of the LGBTQ+ community. Each year, month is a time to raise awareness and honor those lost and those who continue to fight: for a cure, their community, and their own lives.

Check out the "HIV Health Equity Report", it highlights what communities have long known: HIV outcomes are shaped not just by medicine, but by racism, poverty, stigma, homophobia, transphobia, and unequal access to care.

The report lifts up the voices of Black, Latinx, LGBTQ+, and other communities disproportionately impacted by HIV — communities that continue to lead, innovate, and fight for justice despite systemic barriers.

Key insights include:
- Deep inequities in access to prevention, treatment, and supportive services
- Structural racism and discrimination driving poorer health outcomes
- The need for culturally grounded, community‑led solutions
- The importance of sustained funding and policy commitments
- The urgency of centering people with lived experience in every decision

Ending the HIV epidemic requires more than science — it requires equity, accountability, and the political will to dismantle the systems that create disparities in the first place.
