American Lung Association releases new state-by-state report
NEW YORK -- A new report details the toll lung cancer is taking on public health.

We spoke with the American Lung Association's National Assistant Vice President for State Public Policy Mike Seilback to discuss the findings.
He addressed what can be done to increase survival rates even further, and how to close the health disparity gap. We also asked about screenings and other recommendations.
