Asthma: Mild to Major - Myths, Medications & Management

While asthma onset often begins in childhood, it can begin at any age, affecting approximately 1 in 13 people. According to the Allergy and Asthma Foundation of America, in 2022, Black females were more than three times as likely to die from asthma than White males. There is no cure for asthma, but it can be managed.

Join Weill Cornell Medicine, Cornell Tech & the Good Life on Roosevelt Island Association for a virtual session, exploring asthma - from minor cases to life-threatening attacks - including its risk factors and symptoms, as well as treatment options. This session also seeks to address commons myths and misconceptions about asthma.
