Other updates include: * Coverage of Zika, Ebola, MERS, and updates on other pandemics * Expanded discussion of obesity as a disease * Coverage of the widening gap in life expectancy between the rich and the poor * New information on the decline of life expectancy among American white women, especially those who live in rural counties * New material on biomarkers, gene-environment interaction, and stress * Analysis of the role of the hidden curriculum in medical schools * Exiting the Affordable Care Act
