Aspirus Wausau Hospital is holding a public health forum today.

That's in response to the new recommendations for women's breast health issued by the United States Preventative Services Task Force.

These new recommendations say women between the ages of 40-49 don't need mammograms, women between the ages of 50-74 should get a mammogram every two years, and women should not be taught how to preform self-breast exams.

The forum will be held tonight in the hospital's Medallion Restaurant at 7 p.m.

That's near the lobby of the main entrance to the hospital.

A number of doctors will be on hand for the forum.
