Maternal Health Gaps: A Harris Poll report finds many people with postpartum mental health needs get subpar or no support, with Rhode Island tied to the broader conversation through the Lindsay Clancy case. Local Research: URI researchers report waist circumference and BMI together better predict mortality risk in older adults, adding nuance to how clinicians assess health. Care Access & Costs: Attorney General Kwame Raoul and other states ask a federal appeals court to uphold a ruling blocking Trump-era changes that would make ACA coverage harder to keep. Community Fundraiser: Swim Across America Rhode Island raised about $323,970 for cancer research at Women & Infants Hospital, with nearly 1,000 swimmers. Workplace Wellness: A study on technology overuse highlights stress from constant connectivity and suggests short, planned digital breaks can help. Food Safety: Whole Foods recalled Cabricharme cheese in seven states due to undeclared egg allergen. Health Care Staffing: Brown University petition calls for firing a new hospital security vice president over past Border Patrol leadership.
