“...to care is an act not of weakness, but of strength.” The Lancet response: hubs.li/Q035L8G70
About us
The Lancet was founded in 1823 by Thomas Wakley and began as an independent, international weekly general medical journal. Since then, The Lancet has sought to address urgent topics, initiate debate, put science into context, and influence decision-makers worldwide. Evolving as a group of health and medical journals, we retain the belief that the best science must lead to better lives. Visit our website to learn more.

A new Lancet title! Discover The Lancet Primary Care ⤵️
👋 Introducing The Lancet Primary Care, a gold open-access journal dedicated to quality primary care for healthier societies. What we publish is intended to guide effective delivery of primary care in the 21st century and enable the fundamental role of primary care as the first point of contact between people and the healthcare system. 🗨️ “Launching The Lancet Primary Care reflects our commitment to reaffirm the foundational role and enormous promise of this model of care. I feel humbled to have the opportunity to work with professionals who have people’s wellbeing, equity, and collaboration as core values, and encourage researchers and readers to send us content that can improve the health of the communities you serve”, says Yaiza del Pozo Martín, newly-appointed Editor-in-Chief. Learn more about this new Lancet title ➡️ lnkd.in/dArZDP4j #PrimaryCare #TheLancet Alt: A special preview issue of The Lancet Primary Care. On the cover is a sketched illustration of patients and healthcare providers; one woman cradles her child, two others sit in a hospital waiting room, and a circular sticker sign reads “Get your flu vaccine here”. Together, these vignettes - in oranges, aqua, and purple shades - depict a holistic vision of primary care. Credit: Marian F Moratinos.

New issue 👉 bit.ly/4hkVvf4 Editorial focus ahead of #WorldCancerDay ⤵️ Only about 21% of the world’s population is covered by population-based cancer registries, and established registries are under threat. As the chasm between demand for cancer care and its supply widens, real-world registry data are vital. What should be done? Find out more in The Lancet 📘 Alt: Cover of The Lancet, February 1, 2025 issue. The cover quote: “The rising incidence, geographical spread, and severe effect on children younger than 5 years highlight the need for urgent public health measures to be implemented...to curb the spread of mpox.”

The time for regionalised vaccine manufacturing has arrived. The title of a new Comment in The Lancet ➡️ https://hubs.li/Q0341YNj0 The current approach to global vaccine research and development, manufacturing, and distribution has expanded routine immunisation, achieving substantial reductions in disease burden over recent decades and helping to save lives and protect economies. But there are limitations. “Regionalised vaccine manufacturing offers a path forward; it can enable equitable access for regions, alignment with regional priorities, and rapid response to outbreaks”, say authors. Full issue in the comments 🗨️ Alt: Cover of the Jan 25, 2025 issue of The Lancet. The cover quote reads: “If political leaders do not tackle the most urgent priorities for regionalised vaccine manufacturing soon, political and financial challenges may leave regions and the world even worse off in a new disease outbreak.”

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most critical public health challenges of our time. In 2021, an estimated 4.71 million deaths were associated with bacterial AMR. Multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria are responsible for much of this threat. In response, several new diagnostic technologies aimed at rapidly detecting AMR have been developed. The last decade has also seen the licensing of antibiotics that have changed the treatment landscape for these challenging infections.

Over 1 billion people live with obesity. There is an urgent need for a universal definition and diagnosis. 🆕 A Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology Commission introduces a new model with categories: clinical obesity (an illness) and pre-clinical obesity. This reframing identifies medically meaningful targets for prevention and treatment. Joe Nadglowski, patient advocate and Commissioner, adds: “Studies show that the way obesity is usually talked about adds to weight stigma, making it harder to prevent, manage and treat. The approach proposed by this Commission can help clear up misconceptions.” Read in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology ➡️ hubs.li/Q032BcRK0 Alt: An infographic panel for the Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology Commission on clinical obesity.

Is the world better prepared for the next pandemic? It is a key question five years on from the COVID-19 pandemic. Lessons have been learnt but many of the same weaknesses and vulnerabilities that allowed COVID-19 to gain a foothold exist today. “In an environment of fiscal tightening, governments may be inclined to adopt a short-term perspective in which global health slips further down their political priorities. But global health investments deliver an incredible return on investment [...] Threats from infectious disease have not been vanquished”, states a new Lancet Editorial.
