Family Planning funding is needed now more than ever. With the closure of USAID and withdrawal of US funding to LMICs, we are witnessing increased maternal morbidities, mortalities, unintended pregnancies for married couples, unsafe abortions and an upsurge of teenage pregancies #FellowsViewPoint

The findings indicate that the US population is poorly informed about Population dynamics and demographics. This calls more reason as to why organizations such as Pop Con should enhance their Advocacy and National outreach approaches and campaigns. #FellowsViewPoint

Overpopulation and Over consumption puts more pressure on the planet and its limited resources. These are big drivers of Climate Change. Carbon emissions and carbon foot prints seem to be on the rise. We need to act #PopEd #ContraceptiveAccess #FellowsViewPoint
@populationeducation.org The World Population History is very interesting as per the numbers listed in your sister website. In Year 1, the world had approximately a population of 170,060,000, with Asia being the one with the highest number #FellowsViewPoint #PopulationStudies #PopulationDynamics

Contraception is crucial for health and economic prosperity. Closing gaps in contraceptive access through policy reforms is critical. I am happy to contribute to this noble cause. Cc @popconnect.bsky.social @popconnectaction.bsky.social 2/2

Recommendation : by Welch and Black (2010)
''Screening programs must be evaluated for their ability to reduce mortality, not just increase diagnosis rates''.
Detection of biologically insignificant cancers can lead to unnecessary treatments. 3/3
#FellowsViewPoint #HealthPolicyWatch2025
Lesson: ' The assumption that early detection universally improves outcomes is flawed ' Welch and Black (2010) suggest so. 2/3
#FellowsViewPoint #HealthPolicyWatch2025
According to Welch and Black (2010) , screening doesn't always reduce mortality. Emphasis: while screening increases the detection of early-stage cancers, it does not always translate to fewer late-stage cancers or reduced mortality. 1/3
