Why So Many Black Women Die in Pregnancy
BIRMINGHAM — Angelica Lyons knew it was dangerous for Black women to give birth in America.

Coughs may be benign ways to clear a little extra phlegm, or they could be early signs of more serious conditions such as asthma, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), or even lung cancer. “In the era of precision health, it’s ironic that such a problematic symptom is simply unmeasured,” says Pet...
