During the town hall, AFGSC leaders and medical professionals from the United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine (USAFSAM) will discuss the recently completed Comprehensive Health Risk Assessments for each of the three missile bases. The CHRAs use the sampling data collected during the MCCS and attempt to estimate the health risk, including cancer risk, of long-term duty in Missile Alert Facilities.
The Missile Community Cancer Study is looking at environmental factors at all three ICBM Wings, as well as ICBM facilities at Vandenberg Space Force Base. In addition, this study is comparing 14 common cancers in the general population to missile-related career fields using large government health databases.
The room will open at 1:30 p.m. with the presentation beginning at 2 p.m.
