Lung Association introduces new website,
RSS feeds

The Lung Association is excited to announce the launch of its new website. Our new national website - www.lung.ca - builds on the quality online lung health information that Canadians have come to rely on.

Our new site features a fresh design, expanded health content, and a brand-new media room. Visit the media room to arrange an interview with one of our lung health experts. The Lung Association can provide a
national view of lung health and related issues, expertise and commentary from across the country. While you're on the lung.ca site, sign up for one or more of our RSS feeds. The Lung Association's RSS feeds are a
great way to get lung disease headlines delivered to your desktop.

About The Lung Association
For over 100 years, The Lung Association has been dedicated to its mission of improving lung health for all Canadians. A non-profit and volunteer-based health charity, we depend on donations from the public to
support lung health research, education, prevention and advocacy.

The Lung Association works at the national, provincial and community levels to improve lung health. We focus on chronic lung disease like asthma and COPD, infectious diseases — TB, flu, and pneumonia — and
breathing disorders like sleep apnea.

We also work to prevent lung disease by informing people about the health effects of air pollution, indoors and out. We help smokers who are trying to quit, and we provide educational material and programs to make
sure fewer people take up smoking. We encourage governments at every level to create laws and policies that promote clean air and protect our lungs.

When you can’t breathe nothing else matters. ™
