Class action lawyers are investigating a reported data breach at Carolina Asthma and Allergy Center, a medical practice in the Carolinas. Attorneys are gathering information to determine whether patient or employee personal data was exposed and whether a lawsuit is warranted. Affected individuals are reportedly being asked to come forward with details about any breach notifications they received. No lawsuit has been filed yet, and the scope of the incident remains under review.

Faculty at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus say children with asthma frequently face lower academic performance, as flare-ups and missed school days disrupt learning. They are working on initiatives to help manage the condition and keep students in class, positioning asthma care as an education issue rather than only a health one.
